One Night In December

"When does their flight get in?"

" Saturday at 12:06 P M," Andy responded to Brad's question.

Andy's father, Nelson Barnes and his partner, Norman, were coming in for Christmas. This would be their first holiday with us.

"Are we going to decorate before they get here," Andy asked?

"That's okay with me," I responded.

"Well," Andy went on, "maybe we should wait until they get here. That way they could enjoy decorating with us. On the other hand maybe it would be better to have it all done and they could just walk in and enjoy the ambiance. Whatdaya think?"

"Either way. What ever you'd like," I said.

"Okay," Andy went on without making a decision. "What about sleeping arrangements?"

I smiled to myself, "Remember we decided that they could use the downstairs bedroom because that would give them more privacy."

"Oh, yeah, right. Which sheets should we use? The flowered ones are so ...well gay for a better word."

"Aren't your dad and Mr. Perkins gay?" Interjected Brad.

I chuckled.
