They are rolling around, all too fast.<\/p>\n<p>We were late getting up and to the gym, although as I&#8217;ve mentioned, the gym doesn&#8217;t even open until 9.<\/p>\n<p>My sister, Tilda Shalof, who is wickedly funny, has just had her 3rd book published by McClelland &amp; Stewart,<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mcclelland.com\/\">www.mcclelland.com<\/a>. Called &#8220;Camp Nurse,&#8221; it&#8217;s just out and I am shamelessly and unabashedly promoting it. Tilda&#8217;s website is under construction as we bloggers say, but it&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nursetilda.com\/\">www.NurseTilda.com<\/a>. I&#8217;ve heard bits of the stories\u00a0but don&#8217;t suspect W.H. Smith will have it here yet so we&#8217;ll have to get our copies when we get home.<\/p>\n<p>As it was pouring, we had a\u00a0<em>caf\u00e9\/chocolat chaud\u00a0<\/em>at Les Editeurs (many publishers near here) and then went across Blvd. Saint Germain\u00a0to see &#8220;Welcome,&#8221; an excellent movie about the French ambivalence to immigrants which is causing a stir here. No one in the 1:00 p.m. show, too early for the French, I think, as the 5:00 p.m. show yesterday was sold out.<\/p>\n<p>Afterwards, we strolled around the 6th arr., ending up at Caf\u00e9 de Flore late in the day for refreshment and people-watching. Very busy there today.<\/p>\n<p>This seems to be a week of resto-repeats as we had dinner again at L&#8217;Ami Louis, which was a little more restrained tonight as were we.
