smelly men in spandex

Getting ready and out by 7:15am has become the focus so this post unfortunately can't be lengthy. Yet what an adventure these last few days have been. It has been amazing all around. I can't quite say what has been the best part: having someone to help you fit a heavy box in the car? being able to voice opinions about frustrations? reliving the days I first arrived in France?

But guys, this young man is courageous. Andrew has braved the city transport to master public transport: car, train, tram and bus everyday - amazing. He even made it to running club tonight - yikes, a special night with different stations to work out different muscles. The trainer yelled at me to go to jump rope because I had apparently not been working hard enough. In the meantime, I saw a tall Andrew in the distance with tires strapped to a cord to his waist - fitting right in with the other smelly men in spandex. I'm sure he'll blog about that soon.

Anyway, all in all so much fun - from building dressers like last night to going to concerts like tonight. And hey, an incentive to get to work early and come back earlier too, right?
