Of three random things. Plus one more.

castalieOkay first a question. Does anyone have Street Time sitting somewhere and would be willing to share? And before you all think 'dude the Mouse is doing it again, falling for a new show and pestering us with it' I'll say that no, it's not even for me, you meanies! Give me some credit, I can stay, like, two weeks without falling for a new show. No, I can! Oh anyway, as I was saying it's not for me but for a member of the French Posse Bis, the poor girl is in Rob Morrow withdrawal and she's been looking for that show but without any luck so I though of asking you... can someone help her?
And in case you don't know the show and would like some motivation to look for it, I'll give you the following combo: Rob Morrow + parolee + intense and apparently somewhat fucked up relationship with brother. Nuff said.
Second. I've spent a brilliant afternoon with The Mum and The Sis today. We surprised her with a little outing. We brought her to the Trésors Engloutis d'Egypte exhibition - Egypt's Sunken Treasures - held at the Grand Palais [in Paris]. I know I've mentioned it here before but Mum has been interested in everything having to do with Egyptian history since she's twelve, so when I saw there would be a new exhibition, I knew she'd love it. I've been waiting for the day where we'd be all free and we decided on today. It was awesome seeing her all excited and trying to guess where we were going... The exhibition was pretty amazing, I'm so glad we got to go! Then afterwards we had a drink in Saint Michel. I might have tried to bring them to Starbucks but alas they were packed so we retreated to Paul - which was a perfect second best, mind.
Third, and this will be for the FP² more than anything; I've received the last book I ordered, Pomme Q which I picked because I thought it had been written for me: it's a 1st POV from... a laptop. Like a cyberautobiography. How could I resist that kind of novel, right? The first paragraph cracked me up, in French, sorry: "Je n'ai pas de nom. Juste un très long numéro de série. D'origine modeste et numérique, je suis né dans la tête d'un ingénieur américain protestant sous antidépresseurs et les mains d'une assembleuse taïwanaise confucéenne nettement moins bien payée. J'ai été conçu pour qu'un bobo urbain d'une capitale quelconque me tape sur le système, tant qu'il voudra." I have the feeling it'll read pretty quickly so if anyone wants to give it a try after I'm done with it?
Four. New SPN D-1(+1) omg \o/
