December 06, 2009 6:25 PM- c'etait genial
Sigh.
No, really. sigh
It was that lovely. It was that magical.
If I wasn't so spent in this moment I would totally do a birdalogue here with these pigeons.
I took about 483,000 shots of the damn birds and can totally imagine the whole dialogue
going on this early Sunday morning. Alas, it shall be one of those flowers that never blooms
in the desert cause this week is coming at me like dog starved for attention. We've got
meetings for breakfast, projects for lunch, no time for naps and deadlines for dinner from
now until the new year.
But it's okay because Montreal m'a boulverse in the best way possible.
Oh, and remind me to tell you the story of the passport. Not that there's a story to tell,
but I think I could cobble one together for you based on the back story of why Christine
and I did not sail through customs at the border this morning, but were stopped and
required to come inside and explain why I was carrying a stolen passport. Trust me, it's not
that exciting, but I think it could be a good starting point for an entirely different story.
You never know.
I rolled up the driveway around 3pm to a sparkling, snowy wonderland, three bouncing dogs
and one very sweet man who did not have a lovely weekend due to web hosting struggles
and sore throat, alas and alack.
(private NOTE to T: take a freaking holiday once in a while, dude. You work too
hard.)
For me, however, it was an extraordinary weekend-- one that I will look back on with some
frequency as it definitely marks a turning point in my life. So much good. So much creative
exploration and encouragement. So much living in the flow.
Hell, I might even get us a Christmas tree and slap it silly with tinsel and twinkly lights.
Yeah, it was that good.
Bisous, E
P.S. I seem to have lost the borders on my photographs . . . unconscious symbolism or travel fatigue, you decide.
got 2 cents?

Megsie says: It makes me happy to hear how happy you are. I love that you were living in the flow. I am jealous of that. I seem to be swimming upstream instead. Your photos are brilliant, and I really wish the birdalogue would have bloomed, how wonderful that would have been. I will try to look carefully and read their minds. I hope that your busy time from now until the new year isn't as busy as you think it will be. Canceled meetings? Deadlines pushed back? Time for a nap or two? It is the season of magic after all. You slapping tinsel on a tree, or even thinking about it proves that! posted on: December 06
