Ten days till Christmas

Last night marked the offical start of my holiday festivity season. I attended the Trolley and Magnum photography holiday party. It was packed. Books were on sale, and photographers were on hand. Maki told me that the party was being held in someone's apartment. She pointed to a small catwalk above the hallway. Behind a half-open door was the bedroom. I asked if he were a photographer. She said she supposed so.

I met a publicist who told me that I had a "fabulous" accent. By fabulous she meant in the Rupaul kind of way. She said that I had a trace of an Asian accent and asked if I was from California. She asked me if I were metro because I told her I moisturized. (This after I told her I was 33; she guessed 27.) I said I moisturized because I didn't like the itchy feeling of dry skin. It's purely for my physical comfort. She asked if I were gay or straight. She asked my sign and said she got along well with Geminis.

Afterwards we left along with some others to visit a friend of Maki's who was having a small holiday get together. We were the only guests. We drank champagne and wine and ate bread and cheese. All I had last night for dinner was bread and cheese, but it was tasty. By the time I left I was a little tipsy. I left early, but I had a little bit of work to do. For the first hour after I got home I just stared at my screen blankly.

I just had a glass of Tropicana Light'n'Healthy which, according to the packaging, "has one-half less sugar and calories than orange juice." A few weeks ago Hua had commented about how orange juice wasn't as good for you as one might think because of all the sugar. Oddly, this stuff takes like orange drink.
