80 varieties of cheese in 10 days?
i think i can do it
so a little known fact about me is that whenever i'm upset or depressed i go shopping.
normally this little shopping spree is limited to books, cds, and dvds (there was one period in my life where i was buying 3-5 books every week due to a certain living situation i was in).
unfortunately for me, AirFrance was having a three-day sale during last friday's rather shitty day.
so the next thing i know i'm spending 10 days in paris.
no, i don't have a place to stay.
no, i don't speak the language.
no, i'm not traveling with anyone else.
yeah...i'm still reeling from it as well.

Hmmmm interesting impulse... but when you think about it, probably much more effective form of therapy. I say bring on the stinky cheese!
