So the jazz was hard core avant-garde. Wacky good stuff. We made it extra early, not sure what we were expecting, but thinking it was a club. It was not - i was a theatre, with cushy seats and the whole thing. There were some kids in front of us, and we joked that their parents were saying something like "shut up - it's good for you", because they were not interested at all. It's funny that now the cell phone and the game boy have converged - all of them were playing video games before the show (and, amazingly, sleeping during!) It took a few minutes to get our head around the music, but it was enjoyable. Fin wasn't feeling so hot, so we bailed after Sasha's cousin's set.

We walked a whole lot yesterday, and saw all sorts of stuff, and after the show came back and played a quick game of cards, and then turned in. We're now taking a while getting around to depart the house, and will probably have an easy day of wandering a bit downtown and then coming back for a tasty fish dinner. We left early and visited the market that happens every Saturday in Chatou, so we can feel good that we've done something already today.

That "convergence" you mentioned does have some interesting side effects. I have a Game Boy Advance. I never take it anywhere, so it's portability is pretty much irrelevant. I didn't think I'd want to have games on hand. After downloading Backgammon to my phone to entertain me during my move, I've been hooked. Tetris was an addition soon later. Both are a help when I'm waiting for service on my car or if I get to class early. But haul my GBA around with me? Never! So, I've become one of "those people." :)
