Overheard over the weekend: 1. A French person saying "Sacrebleu!" 2. A German person saying "Scheise!"
I saw another movie, this one was called American Vertigo. It was pretty bad. Plus it was advertised as English with French subtitles, but the majority of the movie was just a French narrator. The whole thing was footage of America with a French person talking about it. The highlight was Mall of America, which is apparently representative of the End of Civilization. Who knew?
Other than that, nothing much happened except that another girl showed up at the house and she seems pretty cool. My German friend and I went to the beach a couple of times, and I look like a lobster.
I've been watching plenty of French TV. My favorite show so far is this one where couples with problems are videotaped, and then they watch the videotape with a therapist who invariably asks: and what do you think of a person who (does whatever they're doing wrong)? There was one where this pregnant woman wouldn't let her husband look at other women, she even took away his mountain biking magazine because there were pictures of women in it. But then with the help of a therapist she became comfortable with his love for her and they went lingerie shopping. It was kind of cute. Then another one was about this guy who loved everything Country Western, and it drove his wife crazy. He had these confederate flags everywhere and big American eagle statues all over the house. That was hilarious, but he learned how to pay attention to his wife's needs. I also watch Scrubs and ER in French, awesome!
And now I will search for a nutella crepe.
