The blog wins out !
Oh well, since I’ve gotten one encouragement (apparently one sufficed (thanks ed)), my quest for a job continues to be… hmm, honestly, what quest ?
Rather let’s backtrack and figure out what prompted this sudden(?) move to Paris…
Perhaps it all started on my 26th birthday when I had a flash-forward and a panick attack. At the time, the thought of having been with only one man and possibly staying with him the rest of my life struck me as a punishment somehow. Not that I didn’t love the guy (u still the best tootsie) but I needed and still need to feel ALIVE ! I felt like I was missing out on life. Then my brother up and gets married without breathing a word to anyone, I lose my job and feel utterly lost in NY, a pregnancy looms in the horizon (not mine, my sister-in-law) and so I figured, shit, what have I got to lose…
I know, I’m commitment phobic you may think… well, know that you are right. And perhaps it seems like I was running away but I also know what I was running into.. apparently the France that I had left 16 years ago started experiencing a fascination with the Asian culture and notably with Asian chicks…. *wink* *wink*
Reste à savoir si…

Elise!
Your updates will not go unappreciated! Maybe unread, but not unappreciated.
I am way jealous that you have the balls to up and leave. My balls are too heavy and so here in the US they stay. You can work all your life, so you may as well live it up. So, don’t feel guilty about not looking for work now.
Bonne chance!

I’m waiting for some juicy Paris stories. You should do your part for the French tourism biz.

You’re much braver than I am… how’s France treating you?

Hey Elise! How’s it going out there? When you moved to Paris, I lost a old friend…a awesome friend. Trish has left for Germany last night and hopes the two of you can meet up sometime. Now I’ve lost a good friend and my love.

Hey Elise,
Hope the job hunt is getting better. It’s good that you went to France to feel free. Gotta do it while you’re still young. Let me know how things are going.
