As you can plainly see, I have a pretty good time here, despite the pouring rain (today), no garden (all the time), and the goings in and out of THEM. There seems to be more to do here, for some reason, than at that other place, but mainly because everything is so close there that you don’t have to walk far for, say, kibble supplies, or even fascinating toys for yours truly.
But here, it takes more time, and mama says that the cobblestones, which are broken and coming out of the streets on her shopping paths, are pretty challenging to walk on and so things take more time here than where she can zipadeedoodah down the street and be back in minutes.
But, of course, they do come back. And there was a Filmfest here in Rome to which they managed to go pretty regularly. Here are the films that might come up over the next months that are worth a peek, mama says:
The Party – a newly elected minister in the Bristish government finds her life suddenly turned upside down at a party she gives
Freak Show – a young man’s differences plague him at a new high school and he sets out to change that
Last Flag Flying – three Viet Nam vets get together to heal old wounds
Trouble No More – film about Bob Dylan’s discovery of religion
SO–mama told me just enough to whet your appetite, whatever that means. My appitite needs NO whetting, I’m pretty sure, and as I write, I realize that it’s TIME FOR DINNER!!
I’m outta here…
Looks like you’re whetting your appetite (wonder where that expression came from anyway!!!??) for some of those Italian Wonders your mama makes. Well, before she puts all the good stuff in……..but I don’t get to eat anything with a sauce either. This morning I was THRILLED with chopped raw courgette. But dogs are easy. Everything is – YIPPEE – MY FAVORITE. But bet you do miss your garden. I’m fine – the entire Ville de Nice is my pissoir! And today, to Dandy’s in my pousette while mama has a spritz, papa has a côte du Rhone and I have – more courgette. A dog’s life, huh?! We both have it pretty good, Loulou.
CHOPPED COURGETTES! Wow, you live dangerously. I wish kitties could eat anything thrown their way. And no, mama does NOT give me broth cooked with onion and all those nummy things. But I love to smell it cooking, as does papa. We drool all over the kitchen.
My husband would LOVE the Dylan film!!! LouLou, I think you are precious!
OH, I wish I could have given him the (mistaken) FOUR tickets we ended up with. It will be on Netflicks or something one day.
Sounds like you are all having such a good time you won’t want to go home. Well, perhaps except your mama so she can walk to shop easier.
Oh, I always like to go home. Just not the means to get there, haha. Hope the weather is good in December on the high seas……..
Wait – are you saying you like being in Rome better than being at home ? Or just that there are good things about both places ?
