Xmas in NYC

For a holiday that constantly includes "gay" in the songs, Christmas is a strange holiday if you're a gay man. Non-traditional family settings don't exactly fit with traditional white Christian family scenes. Not that I mind, as most of my holiday memories aren't terribly pleasant. However, I could really get into the new model of holiday stuff this year.

Some new traditions I like:

A Christmas eve spent in the loft, reading books, listening to Postal Service, learning that rectum and rectangle have the same latin verb 'regere' via the erudite boyfriend (by the way, the plural for rectum is recta).

Waking up with the boyfriend in my arms on Christmas morning, listening to the crinkle of a package being opened by Charlie. He was DYING to find out what his friend bought for him. He also found us some really funtastic gifts, including an Invader Zim shirt for me, some Tom of Finland pajama bottoms for Derrick, a chew tire for Dexter, and a new tug rope for Bear.

Top that off with coffee, and I'll be ready to pack the bags and head off to England this evening.
