Le Mot Juste: September 2014
http://www.mot-juste.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 24, 2014. For those of you who don’t believe in miracles, check this out: my son is now 14 months old, meaning that despite my incapacity to sustain most forms of plant and animal life. Child rearing is surprisingly doable. As intended, your child may very well die (and it will be all your fault, you poor incapable fool). And here I thought pregnancy was stressful. OK, some specifications are warranted. He’s doing beautifully. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I’ve lived in France of...
Le Mot Juste: In the summer when it sizzles
http://www.mot-juste.com/2011/06/in-summer-when-it-sizzles.html
Monday, June 27, 2011. In the summer when it sizzles. It’s HOT in Paris right now. Hot-hot- hottttttt. It’s so hot that my boss has asked everyone in the office to draw the window shades and turn off our desk lamps,. Thus betraying his insanity. For he must suspect that our energy-saving Ikea light bulbs are partially to blame. Ever the rebel, I have not. At the time, I had no fan (still don’t). This of course shocked my parents, even after my explanation that Paris seldom heats up enough to wa...France ...
Le Mot Juste: February 2015
http://www.mot-juste.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 3, 2015. Not to knock parenting, because it is 95% awesome, but that crappier 5% seems to be getting the better of me these days. I looked in the mirror a minute ago and realized I’m starting to resemble a White Walker: pale, gaunt, unblinking. Now why would that be? Oh yeah—“we” are in the throes of toddlerhood and frankly, it is, as the French would say, compliqué. Go on—ask me anything. Here’s what meal time looks like these days:. I try to put little g. into his high chair. In addit...
Le Mot Juste: February 2014
http://www.mot-juste.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 13, 2014. I’ve never been a huge fan of lunch. Breakfast, yes; dinner, definitely; but lunch . meh. Uninspiring. I’d even dare say depressing. Just something we do in the middle of the day because our bodies demand nourishment. I realize this anti-lunch attitude is very un-French of me, but considering that I will never actually be. I’m OK with that. So is my distaste for the midday meal an American thing? Actually, that looks pretty good! We are what we eat. Acknowledge that living in...
Le Mot Juste: January 2014
http://www.mot-juste.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 15, 2014. At some point I went and bought a portable space heater, which I would aim at my feet while hunkering over a bowl of coffee in the morning and then cuddle up with on the couch in the evening. Then I met G., who is a sort of human radiator, which helped (somewhat). But hey, winter in Paris only lasts what, six months? Eight at the most? But who’s counting? No need to try to slowly roast us into moving. Besides, it won’t work; I LIKE the heat. I think it’s e...8220;Trashcan Man...
Le Mot Juste: February 2012
http://www.mot-juste.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 7, 2012. I am mortified by how long it has been since my last post. However, it cannot be helped; my fingers are frozen. If only those temperatures were in Celsius. Soon, Paris will heat up again and I will be out of excuses. But in the meantime, I’m hunkering down. Brrrrrrr. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, October 13, 2014. Comfort me with apples. 8212;on end. In fact, I would venture to say that it has been one year since our teething troubles began. A full year! And do you know how many teeth Babykins has to show for it? Four and two halves, minus a chip. Sigh. Yours truly at age 13.* Note large teeth and nascent patriotism. With the utmost gravity in their voices, “Votre fils a très mal aux dents”. What those white things in his mouth are? 8221; “Should we have him hospitalized? He didn’t ...
Le Mot Juste: May 2012
http://www.mot-juste.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 8, 2012. OK I’m back. Spring has STILL to show up in Paris, but I can’t hibernate forever; there’s too much opinion-spouting to do! Let’s get right to it, shall we? France has just replaced charismatic President Nicolas Sarkozy by an insipid mass of vanilla pudding and far be it from me to not point and laugh. Who cares if he brought gutsy and much-needed structural reforms? The big jerk dared celebrate his 2007 election at a swanky restaurant! All we’ve heard from him for months on en...

The Vanishing Mom
Tuesday, June 12, 2012. A year ago I was just 4 weeks away from my surgery. I can't even begin to explain just how much my life has changed. I'm going to try my best to share all the marvelous things I have experienced. So besides the numbers on the scale what else has changed? 6 My posture. As silly as this might sound this is big for me. I never realized how hunched over I was. I stand straighter, sit straighter and my back thanks me for it. It takes some getting used to but every day I...7 My energy l...

Thursday, 14 June 2012. The Story of a Water Droplet. 8220;Ohh- its Saturday”- realized the morning I woke up. Head was heavy and whole world seems to be spinning, lips dying for water and the body compelling for sleep. “Freak…. I am not gonna try this more”…. the thought came to my mind. Just lifted the head a bit and realized.God! I took my pink brush from the holder and decorated some Pepsodent in it. Pink Brush! To my surprise I saw a shining thing coming out of the tap. Oh God! Did u see my bro Aqua?

If you disagree with anything you find on this page, you are wrong. – Maddox. April 2, 2009. I Berlingske dag af Farshad Kholgi. Jeg er ikke enig i alle forslagene (eksempelvis skurrer ordet “tvangsfjernelse” fælt i mine ører – det samme gør kvoter), men der er bestemt en del der er værd at overveje. Visse af dem er endda serveret med en temmelig skarp kant – eksempelvis nr. 19:. Jeg er specielt begejstret for nr. 3 og nr. 18. From → Denmark. March 22, 2009. Palin raser over Obamas handikap-joke.

Tuesday, July 2, 2013. 777 days - Reflecting On the Past, Still Chasing Future. Its been a little over two years since I took drastic steps to improve (and hopefully extend) the quality of my life. The actions were drastic, as were the results. 777 days later, I have not once regretted the decision. Well, maybe I regretted it a few times when I was struggling to move around in the days after the operation. But since I have healed, and subsequently lost 175 pounds, I have not regretted it a bit. Over the ...

Chords, melody line and lyrics are all on a piece of paper on my piano. I return to my bed in a spirit of peaceful accomplishment. I am given a brief moment in heaven and tasted of a simple act of thankfulness and God responded with gracious kindness to let me bring something back, light and easy. What had created this atmosphere of favor? Of course I will not. If I want...
