You know those songs you kinda like and really hate, all at the same time? Yeah. This video runs every so often on french channel 1. The entire thing. I guess Sony finds music videos pay off as commercials, because there are at least 2 different videos (by different singers) every week. Right now, there's this, a truly horrendous french remake of an old 60s or 70s song, "Sealed With a Kiss," and a song by a young lady that I swear is pulling a Milli Vanilli, because she sounds EXACTLY like Avril Levigne. Like seriously, every single time it comes on, I think it's Avril. It's definitely a knock off of Avril's big song about how it's a damn cold night, because the beginning is virtually identical. But anyway. This song is called "Roc," and the line is, "I'm solid comme un roc," which means I'm solid as a rock. I tend to think of it as "Solid, Comma, Rock," and when you listen to it, you'll know why. It's also insidiously peppy when you hear it every day, so while a huge part of me despises it with the white hot intensity of a thousand suns, there's also this little part of me that walks around humming "solid, comma, rock" under my breath. ::sigh:: I scare myself, sometimes. I went all the way across Paris to get Em a bead to replace the one she lost in her bracelet I made her a few years ago, during the tragedy of B7. I didn't find what I was looking for, but I got a cool Murano glass bead to sub for it, as well as these neat dichroic cube beads and some other Murano beads. I have one other place to see if they have the bead I want in the right color. It would be nice if so. The Murano is pretty, but not really the right bead for that bracelet. I had a post earlier, about why I know how to say "La chasse d'eau ne fonctionne pas bien," but Internet Explorer ate it, so I will have to try again later. I haven't the heart, seeing as it was rather long, and I had reached the end of it when whatever caused IE to page back happened. That's the one thing I like about Macs....if I accidentally page back using a mac, I can page forward again and my entry is still there. Good ol' mac. I miss you a little. My fridge smells like ham sandwiches. While this is not an unpleasant odor, it does get old, fast. Plus, it makes me hungry. I watched this tonight, with the sound off and reading lips, and yes, it is every bit as bad as it sounds. Em, we have to rent it; it's insanely mock-worthy. And finally, I took this from my kitchen window, using my suitcase as a tripod and contorting my body to get the shot. Oo, ah. Peace out, ps. Gah! Snood! copyright 2002
