Third floor psychoanalysis


Sitting at work the other day.... and contemplating whether putting up a "single status" on facebook would be social suicide or a ticket to free and uncommited relationships with random perves or geek freaks, I turned to my collegue Edouard for advice. Sat there in my cocorosie t-shirt, straggly unwashed hair, and moulding behind my computer screen with an over due sales report, I smiled at him and his overgrown hair ( yes Edouard has the biggest side parting you will ever likely encounter) and asked him, in plain simple French " qu'est ce qui rends une fille mega sexy à Paris?" ( what makes a girl sexy in Paris) The Minute I asked the question, I felt like curling up and dying. God have I been out of the game so long that I still think that wearing Calvin Klein lady boxers is going to send a male rocketing through the roof? Why the fuck did i have to ask such an auto crippling question? But Ed being Ed casually swung round on his office chair, pen in hand, his pervy little " I scout out hot girls" radar eyebrows twitching, and said: " I like a girl who can sing, when I see a girl who can sing I get a mushy heart and if she has big black eyebags, then I like her even more because that means that she doesn't sleep. And if she doesn't sleep it's because she feels that there are not enough hours in the day to accomplish all that she wants to accomplish in her life".
God what a breath of fresh air to hear someone enjoy the wonders of unconventional beauty. Thank god that masturbating over Megan Fox has not become a national hobby/sport, and that a girl with chipped nail varnish, a small voice that chimes out even in the grimmest of bar gigs, and a dirty pair of ripped shorts, can still appeal to the male gender.
