Marion's Eyelash

To make this honest, this is another blog wars challenge.
This one is up against Shruti Vijh, who creatively writes the blogspot, Shruti -Click There!

Check out her work centered around romantic essential validity.

The Challenge: Who can write the better romantic fiction?

The Response: I have Marion Cotillard on a silver platter begging with Chocolat et les Fraises.

Instead of standard Flash fiction, I will toss around the sculptured masterworks known as rant-indulged prose.

Marion's Eyelash

The day I will meet Marion Cotillard is not a mystery to my intensivities. If an eyelash flew from the corner near her tear duct and floated across a thousand suns and moons only to have the gentle breeze drop it on my cheek, I would gasp like the first time I heard music on 12 strings.
I would press my fingers against the lash, and I would know…I would just know that in some strange corner between the universe and nothingness Marion Cotillard’s fingers were on her cheek, and she was dreaming of a strange man, for whom she did not know but wished so greatly to encounter. However, as she dreamt of this stranger from the acid dream of contemplation, I would run the tiny eyelash between my fingers and stare into it with mystery. I would know that the tiny specimen was not my own, for the single smallest feeling of contact would send the shivers like the ending of “La Vie en Rose” into my mindset with the force of plate tectonics.
At that single moment, I would know that I was holding a piece of Marion Cotillard, and her vision would not see anything in front of her other than the dream of drawing her lips close and for a fraction of time itself kissing the stranger that perhaps has je ne sais quoi and also perhaps has a silent connection with even more descriptive words than Sylvia Plath’s Thesaurus.
At that single moment of paradise and the fortune of the creators of paradise, I would lean my face forward, and my lips would begin to form into a kiss. I would reach out, and I would feel the smacking of Marion against me like July afternoon when the heat is overbearingly hot, but you just have to stay outside. Then once the kiss is over, the only taste in my mouth will be the ecstasy of a French woman beyond the sea.
The eyelash will float away in the soft breeze, but in many ways it will still remain on my cheek.

QATFYG:
Shruti Vijh, can you top this?

"Mon Soleil" - Ashley Park

If there's anything people take away from my piss-poor legacy, I hope it's what a huge, unabashed fan of "Emily in Paris" I am and will continue to be. People love "90 Day Fiancee," "The Bachelor," and other garbage - allow me "Emily," which is at least harmless, kind of goofy fluff (which does, unfortunately, lean into some stereotypes, as the country of Ukraine knows ). I have already watched Season 2 twice. And honestly my favorite part of this show (despite my crush on Camille Razart and Lily Collins channeling Audrey Hepburn hardcore ) is Ashley Park. This woman has superstar written all over her. She's a bona fide Broadway star, and "Emily in Paris" has served as her pivot into the zeitgeist.  "Emily in Paris" is also showcasing her vocal prowess front and center this season, with her covering BTS, "All By Myself," "Sympathtique," and Marilyn Monroe. But the real standout performance is th

Appropriate Holiday Gift Ideas for the Single Lady

While some people may see it as a drag, there are plenty of benefits to being single during the holiday season. During this time of the year, there are tons of parties you can attend that you may not have had the opportunity to if you were in a relationship. There’s also not as much stress on you as a single gal during the holidays because you don’t have to shop for your partner and extended family members  or  stress over where to eat Christmas dinner.  Not everyone sees the bright side of being fancy free during the holidays, and, tragically, they aren't afraid to let us single ladies know. Not only are single women subjected to even more harassment and ridicule during the holiday season, they’re also given the most obnoxious gifts by those who can’t comprehend how anyone can be both happy and single. Whether it’s a self-help book (desperately) trying to reinforce how great is to be single or the gift of a year-long subscription to Match.com , single women are presented with

Give JR a Break

Recently, I've been reading some sites that have criticized James Roday, the lead actor on the USA show PSYCH for an apparent weight gain. But you know what? Who gives a flying fizzle stick if James Roday is slightly larger than he was 4 years ago. Apparently, it wasn't enough to scare away his current girlfriend/ co-star Maggie Lawson. (Who is one hell of a Catch!) And NO they are not engaged. That seems to be nothing more than a rumor, but there is a very high chance of it happening in the near future. Anyway, as long as PSYCH continues to entertain I don't mind about James Roday's waist. He, and Dule Hill, and Corbin Bernson too, can eat all the fried broccoli they want. The last episode of PSYCH wasn't so smashing, but I don't blame it on dietary issues. QATFYG: Are you keeping up with Psych? And who is hotter, James Roday or Maggie Lawson? (Trick Question but idk why) PS: If you have heard any more news on Roday and Lawson becoming Roday-Lawson, send it
