    Imitating Georgia O’Keeffe (12)

    Bette’s POV

     

    Today we’re finally getting the long awaited call from Baden-Baden to discuss the details of the Georgia O’Keeffe pieces transportation. I had to get up early and drag myself to work at 7am, because of the time difference with Germany. The last time I had to get up so early was probably about 7 years ago when Alice got awfully drunk after I’d broken up with her and called me at home at around 5 in the morning, telling me that she got lost. On Sunset Boulevard.

     

    James and I are sitting in my office, patiently waiting for the representatives of the Museum of Arts to call us. Well, or should I say James is waiting patiently and I’m strutting back and forth, getting nervous – I thought Germans were supposed to be punctual, especially with such important things as the transfer of our exhibit. Just as I am ready to find the right words and start cursing that particular nation for making me open my eyes before the birds started singing my phone rings.

     

    I pick up and after 2 or 3 seconds, I hear something that I would have to transcribe as “All yo, here is higher porn and yada yada”.

     

    I take a second to analyze what that could possibly mean, but my mind tells me that I might have overheard what the man said and I just ask him to repeat please. I hear the same phrase and eventually realize that it’s actually German and not English and according to James, what the man said was, “Hallo, hier ist Heiland Born aus Baden Baden.”

     

    But the minute I hear those foreign words for the second time, I don’t know that yet and just tell James that I think the man might be speaking German. And surprise! James speaks German I should have checked his resume more carefully.

     

    “May I?” he inquires, pointing at the receiver.

     

    I give it to him, not seeing any other way to solve this little linguistic misunderstanding. I thought English was the world’s business language, not German.

     

    “Guten Tag, knnten Sie sich bitte vorstellen?” he says and I just look at him, really wanting to know what my assistant is going to discuss with my foreign colleagues.

    1. lmaoooooAlice makes me laugh!Gd chapter!, Post another soon ..Germany eh? I only know englishand about two words of frenchsilonce and ecoute’, and Im not even sure if I spelt em right lmao

    2. OK, I confess, I was born in Detroit. At least the French named it, but I’m pretty sure they don’t want it back at this point. Tell you what: you take Deneuve and I’ll take Ardant-she’s pretty fucking belle herself. I think Dana went to just plain watch Amelie.

    3. I remembered a joke told by an American. – What do we call people who speak three languages? – Trilingual. – What do we call people who speak two languages? – Bilingual. – Then what do we call people who speak only one language? – American. No offence, hoho.

    4. Ma chere fille liberee, il faut necessaire je utilise mon dictionnaire pour le mot buisson. Je comprend maintenant. Ce type d’amour est bon, n’est-ce pas?

    5. Once again, love the real world references! You’ve got me curious enough to take another look at Georgia and definitely to google yoni. Thanks for the chapter!

    6. Such a humourous chapter. Al is a trip. Jeez, Bette, Tina, & James in Germany…can’t wait. A gallery that won’t insure an entire exhibit it is lending out. That’s quite odd…they’d bill the other gallery for insuring it until it reached the other gallery’s city or country. Can’t wait for what’s going to happen in Germany. Thanks for the update…please continue.

    7. We were in Germany for awhile.I can say good morning. Alice is a big big cut up. Tina James and Bette in Germany, that is so cool. Lets get to the drama.Never heard of a Gallery that didnt insure to the other gallery. Thanks
