clémence

clémence, my 6 year old neighbor, just came over for a half hour while her mom went to run an errand. she had a sucker in her mouth, so everything she said was all mumbly jumbly. we played a game she brought with her. on small wooden planks of wood are drawings of baby animals and their titles. the goal is to lay them out and match the animals on one plank with another plank of wood that has the same drawing. i was thinking we were going to play "memory," one of my fave childhood games that provided me with hours of entertainment. WHERE THE FUCK IS THE BABY LAMB!? OH AH NOOO I KNEW IT!  WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME?! hm. now that i'm giving it some thought, i may have learned to regret while playing memory. ohh life. speaking of life, the game of life and also candyland belong up there on my faves list. maybe chutes and ladders, but that always irritated me. why are you going down the slide? get back up that ladder, fool. and the version with snakes made my skin crawl.
            

back to the jeune fille. i googled the name clémence and found a forum discussing whether or not it's a BCBG name. ha. see below a cute description, in french, that describes the "profil psychologique" of girls named clémence.

"Pour vous, la vie est une aventure passionnante : en aucun cas vous ne la boudez. Les vicissitudes de l'existence ont très peu d'emprise sur votre moral, car vous êtes animée d'un enthousiasme toujours renouvelé. Si vous tombez, vous vous relèverez le plus vite possible et reprendrez votre marche comme si rien n'était arrivé."


basically says that a clémence is a passionate person who loves and embraces life with open arms, and doesn't avoid it. when she falls, she always gets back up as if she had never fallen.


makes me want to read my horoscope.
