Carte de séjour

I’m free from deportation (at least for the next 12 months) after having obtained my temporary Carte de séjour this morning. The French really do love their paperwork, but overall the experience wasn’t too painful.

I woke up early this morning to finish an assigment that’s due this afternoon (which I’m still delaying by posting this) and happened to catch the ninth inning of the National League Division Series. Although I’m not exactly a Braves fanatic, it was a little saddening to watch them lose when they had two on with no outs in the last inning. I guess I won’t need to look for a sports bar showing the World Series now. So far I’ve seen very little coverage of American sports here. The Ryder & Davis Cups were in the news a couple weeks back because they involved Europeans but otherwise the French are too obsessed with football (soccer) and rugby to care too much about what goes on across the Atlantic.
