Christmas--->New Year
Christmas at the folks was splendid this year. I was there for a week. My glasses broke my first night there. I read all of The House of Sand and Fog. For some reason the end of the book made me think about how I'm not a better son.
I saw my friend Simone and we got drunk and she gave me a 12" single of this guy Apollo doing a techno version of "Hava Nagila". It would have been a grander occasion if the water in Catherine's house, where we were lounging, had not broken down.
New Year's Eve saw some hijinks, the best one being this: In the sleepy part of the night, Dan observed Andrew enter the bathroom and turn the light off before shutting the door. He then proceeded to go over to the door, turn on the light switch, and then open the door, to "see what he was doing in there". You can imagine what he was doing in there.
