Christmas Celebration - Part 2 Sunday Brunch

The festivities continued this morning with scrambled eggs and bacon and bagels that Dave brought fresh with him. We also had orange juice and coffee. Here's my plate:


Here's Mary doing something (checking email?) and Milo.


Close up on Milo:

Then Matt left since he had a headache (or so he claimed), and Dave, Fran, Mary and I sat at the dining room table and talked about everything under the sun for about two hours -- everything from UFOs to the Republican debates, death, family relationships, charitable giving, ghosts, bras (Dave didn't have much to add to this topic, but he listened intently).

The highlight of today was a call from Afghanistan from Meredith so we all asked various questions about life in the compound. The food is bad, but her spirits are good.

Then Dave left since he has a paper due (working on his PhD in international something... development?  something like that) and he offered Fran a ride home so she left as well and it was Mary and me and we watched a movie, gabbed, and then ate leftovers for dinner which, if possible, tasted even better than yesterday.

I head back to NY tomorrow morning.
