electrician came this morning to fix something and in keeping with the universal code of workmen, came at the last possible moment. he had promised to come at 8:30,but was delayed and didn’t come until 12:15 – when i had to leave at 12:30; but amazingly, he actually fixed our problem.
i went to have lunch with miriam, a mom i had known when jj was in the french school in san francisco. she has just moved back to paris as well. we met at “le timbre” restaurant which means “postage stamp” which was apt, since it was a tiny restaurant. it has been getting a bit of a good name. it was very good and very reasonably priced. it is actually run by an englishman. scandalous!
afterwards, i had to take maynard over to the dogsitters, since we are going to aix-en-provence for the weekend. amy and bob have left to go back to oakland, ca, and we are getting to use their apt. looking forward to slightly warmer weather. amazingly it only takes 3 hours to get down there by the TGV (very fast train). if we were driving, it would take 8 hours or so.
