Buon Natale

[xp_phoenix]

My wonderful husband surprised me with an early Christmas/Anniversary present to go with the Italian language CDs he got me for my birthday. We touched down in Florence on Monday, and will be doing a whirlwind cooking tour for a few days. I know a few people know but I forgot to tell everyone.

Did I mention he was wonderful?

No one get injured while we're gone. Please? Pretty please?

There's a reason she is called Swan.

Excellent! There's so much wine here. We need to make a dent in the supply and for that we need you. Haha.

Hmmm...and what is that reason?

I seem to have developed a reputation...I'm okay with this.

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Irony?

(Also cuz she can fly.)

There are worse reputations you could have...

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Ah, makes sense :D

This is true. :D

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she can fly so she's a bird and she can be fucking nasty when you cross her so she's a mean kind of bird and she's a swan cuz swans are mean and can fly and are majestic but she's not graceful so irony...

I like it. Though I'm also reminded of that movie with Natalie Portman.

The one where she's bat shit crazy?! Yeah, that works!

And now I almost choked on my wine. I should really wait to drink before I read.

Do you have a nickname? Handsy?

[x-adrienne.livejournal.com]

No. I have never, nor will I ever have a nickname. I`m far, far above those pedestrian things.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

What about Cover Girl? That's a nickname.

I thought that was a code name or whatever? Aren't those different? Cuz they're all official and heroic and shif?
