Well. I'm eating "breakfast" and I'm a little bit worried. Oh well. Nice to see you "here."
Let's go to New York City
Let's go watch some shooting stars
Let's kiss everlasting kisses
Let's go steal some fancy cars
Let's go let's go to Paris
Let's play hide and seek
Let's dance the my sharona
Like it was 1993
Let's get naked under blankets
Let's get wasted, let's get stoned
Let me tell you I adore you
Oh let me take you...

i'm not interested in bavarian customs. i've never been to the "wiesn", not even to munich (i should) and i'd rather walk along the seine crunching macarons from ladure. thinking of which, a warm chausson au pomme would do as well. or a baguette. oh! tell me what you had for breakfast/lunch/dinner.
just saw your comment in sev's blog. yeah. thank god i'm not in mecklenburg-vorpommern. i guess those little nazi-boys would love to beat the crap out of a "fidschi" like me. or do something else.

ahh you found them before i posted them all, well guess you got a sneak peek.
While I was "away", I've been thinking about leaving this site. I know, I know, everybody says this now but, I needed to take stock of how life on-line affected me and decide it's relative merit when I can hardly keep up with my real life. That and boobs...
So, I leave for a loooong Paris trip soon and won't post much but maybe I...

I hate that you never speak to me anymore, I know, I know you're busy. By the way I had a dream about you last night.
The early stages of the Iraq war may have been a
watershed in American optimism. The happy talk was so
extreme it is now difficult to believe it was sincere:
"we will be greeted as liberators"; "mission
accomplished"; the insurgency is "in the last throes."
Most wildly optimistic of all was the goal: a military
action transforming the Middle East into pro-American
democracies.

yeah, what you said.
who'da thunk that we'd have a president that makes Nixon's attrocities look good? Although, I'm shamed to admit this, I do like Nixon for the EPA, Medicare (wasn't it?) and China. He was the last of the "good" (programs-wise and disregarding H20-gate) pre-neocons Republicans.
why has no one assasinated him yet? W. not Nixon, I mean.

While you're away, don't forget to write
Bye-bye, so long, farewell
Bye-bye, so long
See you in September
