In LOVE in Paris

Back again after a little break! A break in a bit of a different world. Spent the whole weekend in beautiful Paris. It's such a gorgeous town! I spend a lot of time there between 20 and 25, and actually met my ex-husband there too, but have hardly been back since 1997. I must say it's changed quite a lot, felt a lot more modern and international than what it was before. People were actually nice to us!!

We were 8 girls that went. We all know each other from uni, or the connection is from uni anyway. And only I and another girl are single and only one of the other girls doesn't have any kids. So, you get the picture: sinister spinster in a flock of married mothers could possibly have felt a bit... divorced, if you know what i mean? But not at all, this team of gorgeous girls are just the role models of the world of wives and mothers; energetic, vain, party loving, knows all about clothes and beauty, drools over beautiful men, drinks a hell of a lot of good wine and ... yes, generally, no big change from being a spinster! Even a commitment phobic like myself actually felt a bit of positivism about the thought of getting married again and being a mother. And that’s a very good advancement! Well done girls.

Needless to say, there are obviously SOME differences to my life as opposed to theirs. It would for instance not have been totally correct for any of them to dance all night with a stunning, TALL, dark and overly charming French man? Let alone joined him to the Fetish night at QUEEN, let alone2 made out with him in the lobby of the hotel, let alone3 having an even more advanced session of making out in the corridor outside the hotel room? No, wouldn't have been correct at all for them. But this is the beauty of being The Spinster.
