Today = Blah

Last night I went to dinner and then out for a drink with Barbara (my language partner). I tried kir, which Barbara described as a "delicious girly drink". It's made with white wine and blackcurrant liqueur. I was a fan. We had lots of fun, sharing gossip and planning adventures for when I'm in Paris and when she'll be on the east coast. We had made plans to go hiking today, but then the weather turned out to be absolute crap.

Today was just not such a good day. It was pouring and gray, I couldn't concentrate on my schoolwork, I didn't feel like doing anything, etc. etc. Just one of those days.

But can we talk about how cute our host family is? They brought us a mid-afternoon snack!
