i've been working at a school for mentally disabled people during my 
civil service, and i was surprised to see how exactly the same their 
love-life was compared to 'normal' kids of their age.. love, 
heartbreak, jealousy, it's all there. it seems more natural and 
heartfelt in them though.. seeing one of those boys look at 'his' 
girl with this look of warm affection - when the rest of the world 
dismisses both as stupid and ugly - is wonderful.

>>the husband is sitting on the sofa
cutting the pages of a book,<<
am i mistaken, or is france one of the last countries where books 
with uncut pages are sold in larger amounts? it's a great thing. 
Makes you feel that the book really belongs to you when you 
personally cut the pages. there's even one french author (julien 
gracq) who insits on printing all his books uncut. a good chap he is.

>>That's true: No swedich talks to you <<
hey, that's odd. i always thought swedes were so warm and welcoming. 
i guess that it's more because of the big city.. it was rather hard 
to get to know anyone in paris at first, too, and i know that people 
are a lot nicer in the rest of france.
>>I am not very sure of how awful life in Paris is...<<
but apart of this, it's great :) you just need some time to get the 
hang of it. I think the problem with living in big cities for a 
longer time is that you are horrified at the thought of one day 
having to live in a city with less than 3 million people again, which 
kinda reduces the choice if you want to change countries.. big cities 
are addictive. You feel dead when you leave them. That's probably the 
reason they grow bigger and bigger, ha ha.

time has gone, the song is over, thought of something more to 
say.....
