Sunshine!

Today was probably the nicest day I have experienced yet in Troyes. 18 degrees! And sunny! Too bad my stupid ass was too hungover most of the day to really enjoy it. But, I did eventually force myself to go for a little stroll. Every outdoor seat at the cafes were taken. So many people were walking around. I mentally kicked myself in the ass repeatedly for not being in good enough condition to make the most of it. Having a book or magazine to take to a park and read would have helped too, but I am totally out of stuff to read.

Despite being bored, I am so not ready to go back to work tomorrow! I hate starting off my week with my two most obnoxious classes. But then it definitely makes the rest of the week easier in comparison. I had hoped to get more of my lesson plans finished this weekend but didn't. I just don't want to have to worry about them while Jess is here next weekend, when I go to Amsterdam with Brad next month, and when my brother comes to visit. Bah. I hate feeling like I have so much to do and not having any motivation whatsoever to do it. I need to clean my apartment before Jess comes on Friday. I need to start figuring out what all I need to do in terms of ending my lease/internet/electricity/bank account. I need to not spend any more money like, ever. Does anyone want to take over my life for me? :) Just kidding. All in all, it's not such a bad life. Not at all :)

The weather is go great right now in France! I would like to go to Troyes some time so if ever get there, i'll contact you! But yes the trains are a pain in the ass! Same if you ever want to come to Besancon! (probably not cause its not too interesting here).

Yeah the weather was awesome yesterday, but when I woke up today it had obviously rained last night. wtf, France!? :)
If I ever make it to Besancon I will let you know. Don't know much about it though!

18?!?!?! 18?!?!??! Je ne le crois pas!!!

haha, sorry, it sounds like you were having much nicer weather than we were down here :) Though, it's still nothing to complain about!

I'm enjoying this nice change of pace though, so I bet you are too :)

Yes. Having sunshine is always great, but WARM sunshine?! Being a California girl I always just assumed the two went hand-in-hand. I definitely appreciated it while it lasted (though the last few days have been cold, overcast and rainy).
