lucy & juanita and the rest of xa's lesbian aunts arrive for part 2 of his b-day party.
"All the strangers look like family,
All the family looks so strange"peter gabriel, 'downside-up' (ovo soundtrack)...
they bring along melissa, taz & bianca. ntswake brings along her new boyfriend, shakaar & she gives my reluctant grandmother a foot-rub. marlon joins us later in the evening. we all smoke peace pipe. xa's birthday cake has a ferrari painted on top. taz & shakaar talk art & business.

this past weekend is the most life our house has seen in a long while. godfrey really splurged. jonathan leaves with the rest of the party in bianca's suv transport - bianca loved & fed the cat. eerily jonathan is very fond of my nagging grandmother (she reminds him of a passed aunt).
