I was sipping a latte, waiting for my mom to get out of the loo (which is the actual reason I had to buy the latte, so she would be allowed access). Trying to make the
most of my time, I pulled out my Moleskine and starting puttering away.

Some more tourists came in and were being loud and having a nice time, as tourists should do, when the bartender told them all to shush up. (At least I think he did, I still can’t manage much French, but I got the intention from the tone) He then gestured to me, as if I was doing something VERY important.

I loved it!

Moral: even if the wine doesn’t help the writing, you’re sure to look cool writing in public! HA
