Well, I made it! My flight was exactly what I expected it to be, actually it was an hour EARLY of all things!! Who has ever heard of a flight getting in EARLY!? Anyway, I got all of my luggage, sans problème, and met Jacques and Marie-Lou (my host parents during my study abroad in Paris in 2006). They decided to take me (straight off an airplane, stinky and gross) to what ended up being one of the nicest restaurants I've ever been to for lunch. The food was great, and it was a lot of fun to see them and catch up!
I remember right after I left Paris the first time, I would have really odd dreams for months about how strange it would be coming back. Needless to say, none of that was true. Actually, the strangest thing of all is that absolutely NOTHING has changed! I feel almost like the last 2 years didn't happen. When I left Paris in 2006, I had felt like those four months never happened either. It's like I live a bizarre double life or something!
Ma minou Rachel came over tonight! It is so comforting to have her here in France with me, going through all of the same things I am. Tomorrow we are going to Reims, where she will be teaching, to find her an appartement!
As for me on the apartment front: I think I've found one, but I don't want to jinx it before I've met the girl and signed the lease! I will keep you all posted!
Anyway, I am absolutely exhausted, so even though it's 4pm in Wisconsin, I'm headed to bed!!
