My Favorite Things #1/365

So my favorite things will probably be a bit unconventional and most likely disjointed. But I love so many different things that I can't see how I could do it any other way :)


My first favorite is my fat cat Oliver. Many people do not like cats, but I can't see why. We've had this boy since August of 2006. He was the WORST kitten ever. He would scratch anyone and anything that was near him. He was not at all friendly. I don't know how we lived through that, but I am so glad we did (one helpful thing was that we got his front paws declawed). He is the best cat. He weighs about 20 pounds, never bites unless you purposely bug him first, and sleeps on my bed most every night.

I really do love this cat so he had better live forever!

It's hard to imagine that horrible kitten that Oliver was turned out to be the wonderful cat he is now!

I had no idea he was such a nasty kitten! But he is a great cat...so relaxed and easy going.

I like cats, too. So much easier than dogs! (I do love dogs, too. Well, I love our Daisy Dog)

Day 21 - Class, Louvre, FHE

Class was good today. I had French 102 and Religion. Not bad. After that, I headed to the Louvre with Haley and Chelsea. I didn't bring my SLR with me because it wouldn't fit, so I took my point and shoot. Wow. What a difference. I knew I loved my SLR, but not I really love my SLR! I didn't take any good pictures, but I'll tell you that I did see Charles I Dismounted by Van Dyck. That was pretty exciting. I love to see paintings that I recognize. After we chilled at the Louvre for a while, we headed out (well, we lost Chelsea and found Richard) to the Ricks' place. We were a little early so we went to see the Eiffel Tower. We saw it all lit up. It was pretty awesome. Then off to the Ricks'. We played a charade-type game for FHE and it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed myself. And I was able to use their super fast internet to update my blog. So it all worked out well and it was a good night! PS Thanks to those of you who have been able to post comments. I reall...

Day 54 - Dernier Jour

Last day in Paris! I can't believe it. I'm sure gonna miss this place. Ali, Shamra, Mckell, Claire and I headed out to the city this morning. First stop was the Opera house. I finally got to see the inside this time! Beautiful. We had some fun :) Then we went to Berko's, the wonderful cheesecake place. It wasn't open and it was 11:35. We thought they wouldn't open until 12 but as we were sitting there waiting, they opened the doors! Yay! I got creme brulee cheesecake. Oh it was divine. This is one of the things I will miss most about Paris! Love it. Then Claire and I went to the Jewish museum. It was pretty interesting. I couldn't take many pictures. Then off to the Promenade Plantee. It was a really beautiful walk. I like this flower. It's weird. Then we walked back to the metro. It was quite a long walk so we were very tired! We went to the Louvre for a little internet time. Afterward, we went to Laudree to get a present for Greg and Martha. Then back to t...
