#9427 "My Polish pom pom..."

Woke up late... Slept kinda fine.. just a kidney hurting... but the usual u know... In the afternoon, just going to see the Xmas market in Thionville... not a big one.. but at least we're trying to go in a Xmas mood u know...! Some things have changed in Thionville.. they've repainted the liberty road signs.. probably for the 11th of November... Then we decided to buy 2 xmas tree, but not cut off one, some one that we will be able to live more than a winter.. After a first unsuccesful garden mall, we actually find 2 in a smaller one... like a sign, calling us, to in front of the door... cool.. wasn't sure if i wanted to do a xmas tree, now I'm sure I want to :) Then I finally head to my hometown to see quickly my parents.. joining them for a small tea and a pie, while preparing to bring some other stuff back home.... :) Looking at "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" while writing this tonite.. so there might be some excerpts just for fun and because it's such an awesome movie!!! like : Joel :« If only I could meet someone new... I guess my chances of that are somehow diminished... seeing that I'm incapable of making eye contact with a woman I don't know... Maybe I should get back together with Naomi... She was nice. Nice is good. » Then leaving for Luxembourg, cause tonite is the closing nite of "Luxembourg 2007, European city for Culture".. A nice fullfilled year has passed by... Under a kinda typical Luxemburgish rain, going to catch up with M. at the train station... Then meeting C. & G. in the city center, going to grab a bite... they've flashed over what seems to be a nice restaurant just near the place we met... but the guy in front "have u reserved...??" the 2 ladies "well.. no... but we're just like 4 u know"... the guy "sorry, it's just not possible"... us "that's sad.. they had chocolate fondue.. :( " then came another guy from the inside "just leave us 5 minutes, just the time for a table of 4 to leave"... I looked at C. and said "see man, if WE were asking.. it would have been a defenitive nope... strange power of plunging neckline and beautiful women..." lol.. but in the end we entered and it was damn pretty good! We were in there for like 3 hours at least, but the set is really nice, the food was really worth coming!!! everyone had something different, a salad, some pasta, a pizza and a fondue..... Clementine : « Drink up young man, it will make the whole seduction part less repugnant... » But we sure did all agree about the chocolate/fruit fondue :) It was really a nice evening actually, loads of topics in the conversations and was really glad to be here :) So this is the closing party of the cultural year Luxemboug just had, this was a really great year, lots of things to see, to discover, to interact with, a year of meeting people, friendship, projects, love and also sometimes disappointement... for this closing nite, there was supposed to have some street animation.. but the weather is so crappy than I'm not sure there will be a lot unfortunately... But we headed to the "Place Guillaume II", where a "Disco-funk animation" was... We arrived before the funk thingy.. a loads of 80's typical hits.. so we're surprinsigly jumping and dancing :) Then arrived the "Borsch orchestra", the intro was really space, but then they really played, and it was sort of a polish ska cover of international hits.. really fun, entertaining and motivating..! Time to leave on "In the Navyshk".. lol.. but it was really good fun, I like popular events like that if the sound is good along with a nice spirit, and everything was like that in here :) One last picture with everyone that made this nite so good.. and heading back to Thionville... Arriving at 1am... just the time to say that this was just the perfect nite to end what this year was all about, friends, fun, memories, after the spring party, the music party for summer, missed the autumn one, but none the less.. that was just a great year... a dream year... ending nicely, surrounded by people I really care about... Just the time to take the 2 angels I'll sleep with tonite.. and have a good nite sleep whilie finishing looking at Eternal sunshine.... *sighs* Clementine : "This is it Joel. It's gonna be gone soon." Joel : "I know" Clementine : "What do we do?" Joel : "Enjoy It" It sums up so well this year... just enjoy it and be glad we lived it... as I used to say.. don't cry because it's over, cry because U were part of it... ---------------- Now playing: Newton Faulkner - Teardrop
