Keeping up with a blog...difficult

Bonjour tout le monde!!
So I'm back on blogspot, a little sad I didn't write publicly while I continued with my adventures in France, but happy to be able to share in pictures, emails, phone calls, and rendez-vous' what I was up to these past six weeks.
I read online once that Charlize Theron was discovered while throwing a fit in an LA bank because they wouldn't give her any money. If someone would have witnessed the fit I threw in French in the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris the day I was supposed to leave, I know that I could have the chance at the next Oscar. ;) I missed my flight home. Plain and simple. Went to the wrong airport and paid a taxi driver over 100 euro to get me to the gate that closed 10 minutes before I arrived. You live and learn, really. I was able to catch the flight the next day, and was given a little 11-year-old angel to keep up with my crying and running around as we sorted through life and tried to enjoy one last day in my favorite city. :)

I'm home again, spent the weekend with Ben after not seeing him for seven weeks, and couldn't be more blessed with the man who is there waiting for me to return every time I cross the ocean. I'm leaving for Mexico City on Thursday to visit Isabel (old Paris roommate), and while I am SUPER excited, I'm just hoping I don't catch a parasite and end up in the toilet for a week. Keep checking the site, as I will try to update as well as I can. This life of mine continues to stay interesting as I travel the world, see new things, learn about myself and other people, and encounter new challenges and adventures. (Ride in a helicopter, crash a moped, learn to drive a stick, and eat snails for starters....)

Keep in touch, see new things, and try something new!! A la prochaine!


...and why not enjoy a pic of my man and I while you're at it? ;)
