Post-Turkey

The family returned to Texas on Monday afternoon, bellies distended from highly inappropriate eating levels, credit cards wildy depleted, and exhaustion from too much vacation. I miss them already. Maybe their arrival so soon after all the negative energy of the last few months in the loft was too abrupt a change for me. The loft feels too quiet after having two amazingly intelligent and charming teenagers liven up the space.

Like lots of other gay guys I know, I've developed an intense circle of friends who act as family. Straight family members create their own families, but usually through the really random act of procreation. I prefer my methods of adoption, as my new family supports and loves me.

However, my sister and her clan are really fun to be around. I'm lucky that I have some really great family members that not only know what I am, but what it took to get to this place.

It is nice to have hot water again, though.
