The Blogger of Darkness is in the City of Lights, but in spite of a generous host and a magical city, there are a few challenges for your overseas Tim:
- 1. Ooh La La Keyboard – For reasons utterly unclear to me, the French decided to make their keyboards just a little different than the English ones. Only a few of the keys are in different places – – like, say, the rarely-used letter A – – which reduces my typing speed from 100 words per minute to about 5.
- 2. Trois Prongs – I dutifully brought power adapters; but the three-prong plugs cannot quite cram into the two-prong adapter. My kingdom for a Radio Shack!
- 3. Merde Computer – By far the worst news, my poor laptop is severely on the fritz. So that will be the finishing touch to getting any posts done this week unless I can get it fixed.
Mon Dieu! My heartfelt thanks to Leisa for taking over the blog during these troubled times; I am truly grateful!
