Having MindOverMary in town Friday night was a complete hoot.  What fun!

she seemed to mix very well with my normal (?) Paseo Friday night crowd of friends.

the absolute apex for me was seeing MCARP turn fifteen shades of hot pink being described as the “hottie” after baby sis was telling him how big a fan she is of his blog.  we even got him to blush again when we made him admit to his okieblog award.

after dinner at Bellini’s and a relaxing stint next to The Gary’s pool, she and I ended the evening out on the back patio at Isis on Paseo.

adding to the brio of the evening is the fact that it’s my 12th AA anniversary and baby sis bought me a “chip” commemorating the milestone.  Twelve years of 12 Steps.  Just like baby sis, a gift from God.
