Who do you take me for?

Polenta, it is simply unrealistic to expect me to stir you for half an hour on a low flame.
Especially when you look cooked to me after 7 minutes.

There.

Le Figaro is showing today this detailed account of Louis Blériot’s flight across the Channel, 100 years ago today.  Epic!

Grumpy

While I am trying to convalesce from my reverse fever, I wish my shower didn’t see fit to go from nice warm water to freaking crazy cold.

As Christian rightly pointed out, the plumbing in our 1800s apartment building in Paris was a hell of a lot better than where we are now, where it is only 6 years old.  What gives?  Seriously.

Reverse fever

Posted in regular by Sabine on July 24, 2009

Dear Friday 24th of July,

I have missed a great deal of you since I was in bed until 2pm with reverse fever (that is a body temperature of 36.8º, but severe chills and then hot, like a normal fever).

Christian remarked that I felt the same temperature as him, which is unprecedented since usually ‘when he touches me it goes tssstttt’ since I run much hotter.

So my week-end will be spent trying to get rid of my reverse fever and not the fun plans I originally had :(

Unfair!
