The year ended quite nicely. We hosted our first Thanksgiving. Renovations are finally complete. We hung up a tie rack that I use to hold my Huichol beaded necklaces and bracelets.
I found freelance work. My Aunt from Brooklyn has been visiting though sadly, she leaves today. My Aunt and Uncle from Los Angeles flew into town. We celebrated my parent's 49th Wedding Anniversary. We celebrated my Dad's 77th Birthday.
We wined and dined and dined some more -- and in between managed visits from friends in St. Pete who brought friends from Salt Lake and the six of us participated in the 30th Annual King Mango Strut parody parade in Coconut Grove. We wanted to do this skit/float for the Wynwood Strut but it was logistically impossible. For the Wynwood Strut we were the Toxic Tush - the transgendered guy/gal who illegally performed cosmetic enhancements on people using cement, Fix a Flat, mineral oil and Super Glue.
For the Grove Strut we drove to a storage unit in Hialeah and got our hands on a port o potty - our skit - #Occu-Potty. It was hysterical. Simon was the Jack Ass in a Box playing a Wall Streeter and the door would open and the laughter was priceless. Thank you Peter, Cheryll, Kathy and Bob for coming to town and staying for the Strut.
Feel free to watch the whole video or FF ahead to 2:14 for #Occu-Potty
New Year was spent at my folks house with lobster and steak. New Years Day I had my aunts and uncle and parents over for dinner. So far 2012 is pretty OK - though my icey cold nose would beg to differ. Looking forward to more work. Downton Abbey, Dr. Who, heading back to Mexico, heading to NJ for my nephew's Bar Mitzvah, and hoping the Democrats get their act together. Onward Mush!
