iPhone Photo Chronicles ~ Damn Paris, & All Who Write In Her ~ |
i collect books on Paris. It's annoying. It's like an obsession. And there's worse. For every book i buy, two new ones come out. It's like a sick joke. It's like a curse. i'm doomed to failure. i'll never have them all. But i must have them all. i must! i have to have the best collection of books on Paris... in Paris!
But look. Here's a case in point. Yesterday i bought a book on Paris. A splendid book. A splendid Paris metro book. i was happy. For a while. For a while i was happy, and that while lasted precisely 17 hours and 47 minutes.
This morning i read a paper. i read the morning paper, and i was unhappy again. Two new books on Paris had come out. Two splendid books. Two splendid Paris metro books. i must have them. i must! i have to have the best collection of splendid Paris metro books... in Paris!
Tomorrow i'll buy those two splendid Paris metro books. And i'll be happy. i'll be happy for a while...
