mini-dinner party in desert

Joined in with a mini mini dinner party at my flat. One familiar, one new person. Very funny, lots of frankness and honesty and semi-ironic semi-serious pop-psychology. That's the fifth dinner thing in five days -- I'm thriving on it, and it's a good let up from the desert way I'm walking at the moment. I'm loving the desert, not particularly comfortable, glad to be out of my comfort zone though for the power the desert has to confront me about what really matters and who I am.
