FIREBALL, NEW YEAR'S EVE, WEST HOLLYWOOD : tom whitman, luke nero, body paint everywhere, aerialists . . . still recovering.

-

we broke with tradition this year

(dress up.  have friends over.  cater food.  celebrate.  like adults.)

and went for the opposite

(go to nightclub.  with two thousand other gays.  drink tequila.  dance. tip go go boys. get covered in body paint from friends tom and luke who are hosting evening.)

-

-

that's our friend chris puckett behind the bar.

he went "rouge".

luke, meanwhile,

went all "blue".

-

-

did i mention there were a few other people there?

-

-

and aerialists?  and the "ass" waiters?

-

-

looking back, it was pretty fun to blow it out like this.

2010 was HARD.

-

-

of course, tom whitman took the appropriate tone,

going all "black swan" on us

-

-

yeah, remind me next year.

body paint is the new black.
