Day Nineteen: Lunch?

I call this "lunch?" because that was the one thing I did last Saturday.  We walked to a crepe stand fairly close to the Cité, and I got a panini.  Then I was feeling sick and slept a lot, then tried to watch Six Feet Under to no avail.  Whenever I try to watch Megavideo here (using a wireless connection), I watch about two minutes and it says that I've watched 72 minutes and that I have to wait an hour to watch any more.

So here's an observation I made at lunch a few days before - on 6/3 we ate at the Bottleshop again (the restaurant owned by UW alums).  I remember when I first ate there, the second day we were here.  I remember being horrified by the prices of everything and not wanting to go back.  When I returned last week, I looked at the menu and realized that everything was quite cheap in terms of Paris cuisine (menu was 9-11 euros, something like $13-16 dollars).  And that's relativity, sadly.

Also, at the film school a few days previously, I picked up a cinema magazine and read an interview with Eric Cantona, soccer player and star of Looking for Eric (Cannes film festival winner and a movie we saw in Montmartre a few weeks ago).  He gave some advice that I find to be extremely true:

Il faut rester constamment dans la création.

(One must constantly be creating.)

I realized that I am most unhappy when I'm not practicing or creating in some way.

Walking total for the day: 2.6 miles.
