"My pee is heevaporating!!"

Oh Les Francophones, je t'aime. As well as being fascinated by the miracle of evaporation, the French also loved to fool around with pronounciations. Par Example, the town of Cochrane shall now be reffered to as Cockring. J'aller au Cock-ring. epic.

Other goings on that have happened in the first week include a ridiculously successful Thanksgiving dinner, despite our oven crapping out an hour into cooking. Also, apparently it didnt take long for the first injury to occur-- Diane's at the hospital with the PL (project leader) cause she links she sprained/broke her ankle. I thought running on ice could be a bad idea. I hope she'll be ok though, roughed up ankles can be really annoying.

Interviews for volunteer placements happen later in the week, so that's kinda exciting.

I'm house manager for week 5, which is cool cause I'll have time to plan out my menu. I was thinking perogies. mmmmmm

OO!! Apparently I'm the only Anglophone who even speaks a word of French! Zut Alors!!

uhmmmmm....what else has gone on this first week? Computer time is evidently really hard to come by as most (ok 3) people in my group are facebook and MSN obsessed. (Apparently people still use MSN??)

Dolphins won the Monday nighter but of course I wasnt allowed to go and watch the game. They're real realy strict about this "no tv" thing, which is kinda good I guess.

We'll have wireless internet set up in the house later this week.

so until then,

au tonto

  2. No TV!!! c'est impossible! Not being allowed to watch the game is criminal.
    It's good to hear you are settling into life in Cockring though. Send me a text soon or I will threaten to continue the bad french in my comments. It will be bad.

    Take care L'Adomboy
