Sitting here seriously multi-tasking...listening to a podcast, chatting with Becca on g-mail and Chris on FB and now blogging. I remember listening to a "Science Friday" show about multi tasking where the scientist had proven how inefficient it was...but I was prob multi-taking at the time so don't remember all the particulars.
Things are pretty quiet around here. I have been exploring the area with little car tours every day. Today I went to Cirque de Navacelles which is this amazing gorge southwest of here. Drove for a long time thru all these little sleepy towns and then got to the edge which was breathtaking and a little scarry...like being at the Grand Canyon.
Came home and it was only 2 p.m. which means that everything in town is closed so I put on my workout clothes and tennies and went on a run/walk kind of thing exploring some of the roads around here. I think my throat is having a little bit of a reaction to the diesel fuel in the air but maybe I am just sick and looking for something to blame. Auctually it would be better if it was sickness cuz then it will be over...unlike the diesel fuel that I am not going to be able to get away from for the next 2 months.
Talked to Blake for a minute but he was still sleeping (he is sick also) so went back to bed. Sometimes I feel crazy for leaving him for so long. I miss him and our dog and my friends and family and just about everything but need to suck it up and enjoy my time here. I know that I am quite a spoiled girl to be able to come to France for 2 months, or as Blake says (and I hate it when he says..) "you live a charmed life". My life will be there when I get home and hopefully this experience will help me appreciate it even more.
I am off to Paris in 3 days. Cannot wait to walk the streets, go to x-mas faires, do some shopping, kill a day at the Louvre....all of it. Let me know if there are any suggestions out there.
