the palace of versailles

My phone does not allow me to make comments on anyone's posts including my own. But I'm still thinking of edgar. Maybe if men could understand the little things we like there would be more choices for us out there.
Onto the palace of versailles. Occupied by louis the XIV? Or the XVI? I saw a show today and they gave a quick tour of some of the rooms but focused particularly on a room above the king's bedroom. Living quarters for his mistress. Everything was made of gold. Even the mistress had it good. She was an artist. She decorated and did her art in her little apartment. And on the floor was a trap door which was a secret passageway to the king's bedroom where they could go back and forth to each other's rooms at any time of the night.
Didn't the queen have to "make an appointment" to see her husband? But the mistress could go anytime. What is that??? Again I ask which is worse? To be the mistress who must remain the secret but has the kings heart in the palm of her hand? Or to be the queen who has all the fame and fortune but her husband sleeps with other women? I guess it would be worse for the mistress. The queen may have had her own men she slept with. Probably hot young men too!
Come to think of it... Having a man completely in love you but has to hide you? That's much worse. I just imagine what it would be like to have a king be in love with you and take care of you... Of course on the flip side... She lived above him subject to have no other lovers. I hope she loved him!!! If she were in my situation she'd be happy enough. I love love love my muffin man. If I could sneak to his bedroom, I'd be there every night. All night. Kissing him all over, listening to him breath, noticing every idiosyncrasy, being a confidant...


I really wonder she loved him. I wonder if she was passionately in love with him the way I am in love with my muffin man.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM!!! LOOOOOVE HIM!!!

  1. I wonder then if you did sneak over there to observe her with him. I think I would have to, but that is me.
