This was the night of our annual Santa Crawl. I decided to make a token appearance by heading to the Tavern around 11 PM and surprising the crew as they came through. They arrived about 11:20 and it only took about 15 minutes for me to realize I’m not ready to resume a full social slate yet. I was busy trying to catch up with people that I hadn’t see in ages and a minor coughing fit came on quickly. Fortunately I had my senses about me and didn’t leave with them when they took off for the next bar about a half hour later.
The event has grown considerably since I started it with five people back in 2004. I’d say they had about 45 people tonight. A couple of people took photos of me and as soon as they send them to me I’ll post them
At least you can see how thin my face is in this photo. I’ll post a full body shot (without the Santa suit) in a day or two.
OMG are you thin! I haven’t seen you this thin since high school. I hope you are taking care of yourself.
I probably passed 170 as a sophomore in college (and this is the first that I’ve been back).
When I first saw the picture, I thought dad had been reincarnated as Santa Claus.
