hello loveeeess
here's my how i spent new year's eve report
was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster for moi
as i was so bummed not to spend the big night with La Cubana
but i made up for it by enlisting my art partner Dror
as my date
Dror and I went to Tray and Gus's for a big ass meal
and there I got to watch first hand as my god-daughter demonstrated just how well the burping doll i got her (with a little help from her mom) for Xmas ..burped.
Tray made a huge meal..Jewish and Christian hors d'oeuvres
kosher franks in the blanket and shrimp cocktail
HA
for dinner
a roast beef with mashed potatoes
and spinach
dinner was fabu darlings
dessert was a key lime pie
and a rather frightening Yule log made out of marshmellow gooey stuff inside
and the same chocolate they make those Easter bunnies out of outside
I think this was a
recycled thing
someone had dumped the Yule log on tray
and she demanded that we all try it
so basically it tasted like a giant yodel
but the kids loved it
and i think dror kinda liked it too except he had trouble eating the tiny chocolate animal faces on the side
at 10 PM dror and i hightaled it outa there
knowing just what it was going to be like to drive from Brooklyn to Manhattan any later
we wound up at Cafecito's (home of the world's greatest Cuban coffee ..hmm okay just New Yorks greatest Cuban coffee) new years party
where i added the fact that I'd broken my diet
with red meat and champagne and had
a mojito
La Cubana called me at about 11
and in the middle of a conversation about what i was doing and where i was
she simply walked in the door
"Surprise"
she'd ditched her family in long island and hopped a limo and a plane to spend two hours with me before hopping a plane back
"I get a lot of brownie points for this one!" she demanded
La C is a business woman after all..
La C and i danced to the latin music and made Dror drag his Israeli butt to the dance floor a few times too..
then we all went back to La C's apartment and drank
MORE champagne
and watched the ball drop
and if it wasn't that we had a guest
La C would have truly gotten some
at about 1:30
La C and Dror left
and i was all alone to spend the night in La C's apartment
under the blankets
with Pete the FAT cat on top of me
purring like mad
and i watched really REALLY bad TV till 3 am
and then fell asleep
the end
p.s. on new year's day
i went to my apartment and discovered tha Lu Lu my
very bitchy feline
had pissed all over the brand new quilt blanket and bed
i don't know what the symbolism of that is
but i think it might be something like
laugh and the world laughs with you
spend the night in your girlfriend's apartment
and someone will find a way to piss on you
La C says im looking at this all the entire wrong way
and should see my lu lu peeing
and La C flying
as just what people will do when they miss me
so i guess this means i need to work on my glass is half emptly stuff huh?
sigh
