Business Time
Yesterday I found out that a group of ferrets is called a "business." That's not fair. Why do ferrets get the coolest gang name of all? Do ferrets even hang out in groups all that often? Sometimes people let me hang out with them so I decided that on those occasions I would refer to that group as "my business." For example, I've been having a lot of fun with my business here in France, but I really miss my American business. You should try it too!
Today it happened. Jordan Catalano, like actually, spoke to me. He said a real sentence to me. It was around 1 pm France time right outside room 303 Raspail at the Alliance Francaise. I was approaching the stairs, he was coming out of the bathroom, and then I heard it. "Bon week-end." Oh my god those are the most magical words I've ever heard spoken! And I know he really meant it. He really wanted me to have a good weekend. I have to admit that I'm really not surprised he chose that moment to talk to me cus he was behind me and the jeans I was wearing today fit me really well. So whilst trying not to fall down the stairs, I alluringly did a half turn and replied "bon week-end" and kept going downstairs so as to look like my business was waiting for me because of how popular I am. Then I said to myself in disbelief, "I carried a watermelon??" Ah well. We're both presenting articles to the class on Monday, but he asked if he could present in the second half of class because he was going to Italy for the weekend and will probably be late to class. He was late today too, but I like when that happens cus then I get to watch him walk across the room as he chooses to NOT sit in the empty seat right next to me.
I'm doing a load of laundry right now. I figured I would do one load today and one tomorrow because I didn't bring any clothes to wear while I do the wash, so if I washed them all at once I would be naked right now, and I don't want to be cus it's not very warm today. The French don't use dryers so I'll need to wait about a day for my clothes to dry. I should also add that I have no idea how to use the washing machine and I don't really know what's happening to my clothes right now. The setting I chose is "30 delicat" and 600 for the essorage. I don't know what any of that means, but I figured I wouldn't choose any extremes, so as long as soap and water are making contact with my clothes, I guess I'll be ok. Well I hope the soap is making contact with my clothes, I didn't really know what compartment (out of four!) to put that in. So I put in in the second one, cus you know, why not?
