On auction today there was this…
a textile fragment which was a piece of Marie-Antoinette's clothing.
Seriously why does this sort of thing grab my attention?
The trip it takes me on…
First thought: OMG I want it.
Second thought: Yeah at 1200 Euros beginning bid
I do not think that is going to be a realistic option.
Third thought: Dang to think most likely someone is going to bid 5000 euros and take it home.
Fourth thought: 5000 euros can feed a lot of people or at least this should go to a museum.
and on and on my mind wanders from wanting, to reasoning, to listening, to wondering …
to settle on being happy that I am able to see these things.
What object/thing do you take a fancy to regardless if it is reasonable?
