So we've been back in Swiss Romande for a bit more than a week now, and I think we're all just about finished with our unstuck schedule.

It was last year around this time when I learned that the proper French for "jet-lag" is décollage horaire. I had previously thought they just used "jet-lag", after having been told so by our previous landlord. I guess he was mistaken. It turns out that "Jet-lag" was in fact a trendy bar in the old town here in Lausanne, and quite a few people hadn't learned the English meaning of the name. So here I was explaining our fuzzy-headedness by saying "we have a trendy bar in the old town", which got me some puzzled looks.
