Last Chance To Dance Strance

I'm finally really at the end of my trip. It's 1:45 am in Paris on
Saturday night and tomorrow is my last day before I board the plane
home at 7.

It's been a beautiful night in Paris and I've spent the last hour
listening to Deerhunter and lying half-awake on the fields of Parc du
Champs des Mars in front of the Tour Eiffel. I had sort of
contemplated trying to find some secret rad French club or dive and
stay up all night, talking to strangers and getting drunk and swimming
in the world, but I'm basically too exhausted too commit to anything
like that on my own right now. I went to bed around 8:30 am this
morning after a long crazy night out with friends and then woke up at
11 still feeling alcohol in my body and at this point I guess it just
needs to be enough that I'm even still awake. As much as I've seen and
done while on this trip, I know feel like there are five million more
things I am excited about doing now and just want to get started on.
But really, I need rest, somehow.

It's strange to think I'll start work again on Monday, though in fact
I've been working periodically for at least a bit of each day since
our conference ended on Monday. But of course, I ain't complaining.
