Happy Holidays. At dinner with Larry and Eric last night I realized I was having a nice time. Such a contrast to a year ago.
Larry and Eric.
We went over to David G. and Abe's house afterwards. I, unfortunately, left the camera in the car. Abe's three sisters and his mom showed up. They are really funny, I watched as Mom mixed together a total white-trash (or brown-trash, I guess) dessert involving fruit cocktail, mini marshmallows, and whipped cream. Ohmigod, that is something that would have been on our table when I was a kid.
Then drove up to Rich's house out in the desert. Handful of people including Mitch and Terry and Rich's brother. A woman named Sandy who was remarkably youthful for someone with a 20-year-old kid. We played games. Rich was getting pretty toasted, it was fun to watch.
Huge saguaro at night.
Boojum lit up, with Richard and Terry.
Richard has some really bizarre and rare plants, including a boojum tree from Baja California.
Richard, Xmas eve.
Richard, who is one sexy man, has been a good friend of mine over the last couple of years. He is one of a handful of people that I can talk to about anything and Richard gives his honest opinion. And did I mention that he is sexy? Very easy on the eyes. As it happens, he is dating an ex-boyfriend of mine from Phoenix, which is nice and so typical of small world Arizona.
Came back home to find messages from Wayne, Patch, Sushil, and Mighty. Happy Holidays to my new friends around the country. Blogging had allowed me to get to know people I would never have met otherwise. That has been the best present this year.
