My
boyfriend is a very particular person. He tends to stick to the things he likes
and not stray far from that. And he dates me... silly, silly man. We are a
perfect example of opposites attracting. So it’s going to take a lot of
convincing on my part to ever get him to go on a vacation like the one I am
currently on. So on that note...
Today I
went to Fahad’s favourite restaurant...
McDonald’s.
They happen to be one of my Mom’s clients, so she likes to scope out the
variations that they have in foreign countries. I was pleased I could get a
decent side salad (I can’t eat fries) and my burger was actually quite good.
In the Art
Nouveau section of Les Arts Décoratifs, there is a display of glass vases with
motifs inspired by nature....
The bat is from 1905 and the snake vase from
1900. So I found (non-taxidermy) examples of animals in a museum that are weird
enough for Fahad to love (basically, if it’s odd and could potentially eat you,
my boyfriend thinks it’s a wonderful pet. I would like a dog).
My
favourite thing that reminded me of my dearly beloved back home has to be this
piece in an Egyptian gallery of the Louvre. It’s a detail from a Book of the
Dead and I had two thought when I saw it ‘ooh, that’s so creepy it’s kind of
cute’...
And ‘I’m so
happy it doesn’t exist, because Fahad would want it as a pet’.
Love you
babe. See you soon!
