Paris PeopleHuman Interaction Day Today, I planned to eat falafel and explore hotels. Instead, I called Shadok at the last minute, and he took me to a veggie spot for yummy brunch, and we wandered about town. It really was nice to let my guard down and let him do the French for a while. I had an awesome time chatting politics, ambling about to comic book ships, petting bunnies (SO CUTE), watching ducks in the pond under the Obelisk (SO CUTE), wandering les Jardains des Tuileries, and seeing Notre Dame. Good stuff. After he left to go live his real life (thanks for hanging out! full awesomeness of local-dom!), I went back over to the Centre Pompidou and saw the parts of the permanent collection that I cared for much more that the post-1960 work of yesterday. Maybe I am my father's son: the Miro blue works were great. Then an attempt at some rest, but really only communications. I went to a Time Out recommended veggie place, had an anxiety attack (lots of people, hipster, french, eating alone, language felt more rusty, etc), elly calmed me down over the wonders of modern technology, and then there was YUMMY couscous, a split of wine, and random conversation with New Yorkers (ok, Hoboken) sitting next to me. We ended up at a (shitty) Karaoke bar, left there and had a nice drink on Rue De La Rouquette. They used to live in Paris, and were here on her birthday weekend. Good stuff, that conversation. Maybe I'm an extrovert, maybe I just like wine. Enough already. Here's the edited fotos. The full set is in days.
