I had a really nice day today. We went to the bank and the post office. I sent my 5 letters. It cost about 20F. Then we picked up some real French pasterie -- ooh lala! Tres bien!
After lunch Colette took me to Jerome's house. She went where ever and Jerome's mom took us to Monge and we went shopping. She took care of something else and we walked all through the town and he explained everything. It was interesting because he has shaky English and I am awful at French. It was fun though. We were late getting back but his mom didn't mind.
The town was really neat. Shops everywhere with a cathedral in the center. It was a little scary because here people drive on the sidewalks. So you have to watch out!!! He took me in the Cathedral and the garden. It was really pretty. It was cool inside the Cathedral. We went back to his house and he showed me his stamp collection and army models. His mom made cake out of berries Charlotte had given her from the tree in our back yard. It was very good. I think it helps hanging around him because he helps me with French and I help him with English.
Another different thing I noticed is whenever people meet their friends they give them Hollywood kisses and kiss on each cheek 2X. Also before anyone leaves. It is neat.
The dogs seem to like me. They don't bother me too much.
After dinner at 9 another one of her friends came over. He is very different. I guess he is kind of cool. He was telling me all of these weird things. He was smoking hash - it is the mild or weak drug, he calls it. We watched some show - seemed like a porno flick but I guess that is French TV for you. He translated everything for me. He is into weird abstract ideas. He takes pictures of naked bodies in weird positions and makes them into weird collages. He is also a poet and a writer. He's into music but he can't play. He is staying until who knows when. He is from Paris. I can't pronounce his name so I can't write it. He is 28 but wants to be a teenager.
