Big in Japan

This is Ella, my stepsister’s daughter, wearing the little kimono I bought for her on Hayes Street.
“When people ask me where she got such a fabulous outfit,” my stepsister said, “I tell them she has a gay uncle in San Francisco. Everybody kind of nods knowingly.”
Next up, a trip to the salon!


Yeah, bein’ the gay uncle – it’s an awesome responsibility.
The Catskill house may be ready to inhabit before next winter – c’mon back, bring the Fireplug, hole up, and finish the book! Missin’ ya, Mike.

For you or the baby, hon?

I guess I can’t really claim any relation to her, can I? I am just sure there is a Brandner resemblance in there somewhere though…. Perfect gift from SF!!
When this crazy work/school circus is over you will be hearing more from me. Hugs to the Fireplug.
