Since we are on the subject of mornings in France and waking up I thought I would do another little vocabulary lesson. Here are a few more words and expressions that no French teacher will ever think to teach you.
J'ai la tête dans le cul...Literal translation: My head is in my ass...Meaning: I am having a hard time waking up this morning.
Je suis dans le pâté....Literal translation: I am in the pâté...Meaning: I am moving so slowly this morning that it feels like I am wading through meatloaf.

If only I had known these phrases when we stayed with you. I would've had a chance to use all of them.
Hi Mary!
Matt forwarded me your blog - maybe I should do one on "How to marry a Canadian" :)
Hope to see you soon.
Louise
