Morning after Martini
Hi Sweet Darling,
I am so sorry but I won’t be able to come to the Hamptons this summer; however, I have just discovered that one of my oldest and dearest friends is going to be there for most of the season. I can’t imagine how it’s possible that the two of you have never met. Well, he is absolutely fabulous and you must make a point of contacting him the minute you arrive.
His name is Francois Fibian, of the Louisiana Fibians. He’s a very old friend of the family; we’ve known each other practically since birth. We lost touch for years during school and have just recently reconnected. Francois is absolutely divine, actually quite unique. I promise you have never met anyone quite like him before. He dances better than Astaire; plays the piano; is fluent in seven languages and can make a martini that will bring tears to your eyes. He graduated from Harvard Law, practiced in New York for a while and hated it. He’s been searching the world trying to find himself ever since. Watch out though, Francois has always been a bit of a rogue; great date, terrible boyfriend.
Great family, though a little peculiar. I recently met his illegitimate twin brother Maurice; can you imagine? Rest assured with Francois around there won’t be a dull moment. He’s a man of action. He travels constantly and knows absolutely everybody on earth. In Fact, Francois and I have been traveling together for several months and quite frankly I’ve got to have some peace and quiet. I’m all danced out.
Well, have a great summer and stay in touch. By the way, did I mention Francois is tall, dark and green? I promise you he is fabulous.
Love,
Jann
