While in Paris this past weekend, without my laptop, nor camera, I fell in love with my cell phone, which I now refer to as My Jean-Pierre. You see, French Husband was certain that I could not be carrying on like a teenager in love over something, and it must be someone. Since my cell phone (Portable in French) is something, and not someone, I thought I might as well make it more personal than a thing and named it.
My Jean-Pierre makes blogging as effortless as breathing! The free app "Instagram" gives photos a mysterious look, old fashion and as simple as snapping your fingers, or in this case as simple as a click.
Late last night Natacha and I came home from Paris. Natacha frantically packed, while I tried to sleep.
Her flight left this morning at seven. Which meant we had to be at the airport at five. Which meant we had to leave our house at four. So you can imagine what time we had to get up… Five minutes before, that's right.
I inserted toothpicks between my eyelids, while Natacha repacked her suitcase in the backseat. I tell you that girl has my number down: Last-minute and charming.
My Jean-Pierre woke me up this morning to the sound of harps.
By the faucet in the bathroom, there is a silver cup.
Snippets of beauty in ordinary places is key to my happiness. Simple moments that build on one another allow me peace of mind.
Cocooning is after all one thread following another, one feather falling on an another fluffs the nest, and one dented silver cup finds a home easier than a ten-foot massive walnut armoire.
I am happy.
My Jean-Pierre claims it doesn't know jealousy as I take photos right and left, though I hear him saying, "I am a CELL PHONE!"
Oh, Jean Pierre, you are my boy toy, flash me another.
A snippet of the anti-chamber. That is what this hall space, the room before our bedroom was called by the previous owner. Anti-Chambre. Dang romantic of a name for a hall space isn't it?
My Jean-Pierre sleeps here since French Husband says it is not a good thing to sleep with one's portable on one's nightstand even if it does play the harp amongst other things.
