Happy New Year.  An uneventful welcome to the New Year.  We had a great visit from Dave and Pamela and kids.  Very nice, quiet visit.  We ended up not going to Wang’s, which was kind of a relief.  We are very boring, and would much rather stay at home than make the effort to go out.  Especially on a hellish night like NYE.  I am now looking at the holiday decorations, and planning on the packing and return to storage for the year.

David is out in the sun, and we just finished watching Splendor in the Grass, which made David cry and get a little emotional.  He was getting the chaise lounge all wet with his tears.  Sad to say, I have never seen the movie, and Natalie and Warren both looked spectacular.  In many ways, they sort of seemed out of place because they were both so beautiful and everyone else in the movie just seemed so ordinary.  That added to the impact of the movie, I think.  Now State Fair is on, and AnnMargaret and Pat Boone can’t hold a candle to Warren and Natalie.  Well, let’s face it, Pat Boone almost puts the flame out with his blandness.

No plans, but we may go to the movies.  Not sure if it will be a crowded day for the movies or not, so we will have to plan on going early or go see something that nobody wants to see.

So, here’s to a great 2014 and many visits from people here in Palm Springs!
