Wonderfully unhinged.

So my French-word-of-the-day email today was desaxe which mean "unhinged; unblanaced; mentally disoriented; off center" Awesome.

These emails are always accompanied by some sort of photograph that is supposed to clearly illustrate what the word means. It never, in my opinion, does. HOWEVER- todays pic was so so dreamy that even though the correlation with the word was lost on me, it made me nearly book a flight to Paris the second after I saw it.



To me this chick looks totally together. The only thing "off center" is the shot. That room! My gosh...strands of white lights, a Great Gatsby poster peeling off the wall, giant old mirrors on the floor. This is exactly the kind of room where I would be the opposite of desaxe. I want to be there with friends, with wine, playing a card game.

So my goal today was to be anything but unhinged...it's going so-so. I'm reading Alice in Wonderland for obvious reason. My aunt and uncle gave it to me for my 10th birthday and I like to re-read/look at the pictures from time to time. It makes me feel fuzzy. This activity=totally f*ing hinged. And charming?



Then, I just agreed to let an ex-boyfriend crash at my apartment tomorrow night in what is sure to be a complete and utter drunken mess of an evening. What? UNHINGED!
