An appreciation for a friend hosting me... names were replaced with XXX to protect the victim...


Before I forget (since I am in a little bit of a zombie daze; just got back from Rungis this morning, it is like Siberia, and sloshy, but fun), I must restate the obvious:

  Words cannot express how grateful I am to your hospitality, giving me a piece of XXX in its true essence.  Not only am I living memory of a life time, from what you had given me, I also truly enjoy many scratch-exactly-the-right-spots moments with you, an unparalleled friend.

  What constantly amazes me, is not just your shocking good look, style, but everything beneath that impeccable shell.  For what is underneath, is your greatest strength and charm:

  an unbelievably warm considerate deep hungry intellectual soul that can invigorate the entire planet, and still lights up the whole universe, on the side.  God must have made a mistake; by forgetting to take away something perfect.  It's not just "God created women" that's a miracle, but GOD CREATED XXX!

  Your awesomeness, is simply, priceless!

  I am forever grateful, to your kindness!


OK, that ought to make up for selling everything at the flea market last week...and those new underwear.
