Sorry? That's what I am supposed to say. Right? Sorry. Oh, em, gee am I sorry.

More caught up by what happens on screen than the given scene. We spend so much time capturing the experience, we miss it altogether.
Pump that image, fill it with whatever you like. They'll only know if you tell them. One big fucking vanity project. Selfies in superstore. Seriously. In the cheese aisle. I guess that's glamorous? Who knows what that is.

Once in awhile.
Paris looks far more beautiful when not viewed through your phone screen.
