Monthly Archive for December, 2006

I’ve been tagged by Matthieu Riou, so here’s my list:

1. I’m always afraid to act like sheep, and before making a decision I wonder if this decision is really mine.
2. but sometimes I can’t stop myself from acting like sheep, this post is a perfect example.
3. every time I check the time it’s h:h, I mean 11:11, 18:18, 01:01 and so on. (I live in Paris, so I use a 24h clock). I can’t figure out if it’s a real paranormal phenomenon and have some kind of extraordinary gifts, or if I simply experience probability. But one thing I know for sure is that my wife and my coworkers laugh at me.
4. The moment of the day I love the most is when I come back at home and hear my boy, Calixte, screaming “Papa, Papa, chambre! chambre! assis!”.
   Sorry, Calixte doesn’t not speak english yet, but a translation could be “Daddy, Daddy, bedroom! sit down!”.
   For those who don’t understand kid language, a translation for adult could be: “Good evening Daddy! How was your day? Would you please come into my bedroom, I would be very happy we play together before sleeping. We can read a book if you want.”
5. finally, I must confess that, every morning, …, no, I definitely can’t reveal this embarassing secret. Maybe in few years, when I will have been tagged by another freak like Matthieu.

Now I’m supposed to tag 5 blogs, quite a difficult task actually. I mostly read popular blogs (another example of point #2), and tagging Joel Spolsky, Tristan Nitot, or Martin Fowler wouldn’t be very funny.
Nevertheless I would like to put under the spotlight Burt, Google brought me to his blog; my friend Thomas, not really prolific blog, but their kid, Paul, is so cute; the website of Agathe, my beloved wife; and ……. fill in the blanks.
