A big Happy Birthday to my friend Denise!
Denise and I met in middle school. I had just moved to Las Vegas from St. George, Utah when we became friends. Wow, we’ve been friends for almost 20 years! Holy shit!!!! We’ve lost touch and reunited a couple of times and I’m glad that now is one of those times. She has two beautiful daughters India Rose and Zoe. Denise and I used to have the best fun doing the stupidest things.
Us dressed up in my dads cowboy clothes. Picture taken sometime during highschool - maybe 10th grade?
We used to ditch school together alot, cruise the strip in our clown pants and shoes, and get into what little trouble I used to get into. The first time I ever did drugs was with Denise. We tried to smoke pot - but it didn’t work for me - I didn’t know how to inhale. Hahahah - I learned a little too well later on in life.
The things that will always remind me of Denise: her big green overstuffed chair I used to love to read in when we lived together and eating mac and cheese every single night!
Picture taken in Utah on our way to see Pearl Jam.

Happy Birthday D!

I can’t believe you put the cowboy picture up!!! That is so funny, I totally forgot about all those crazy pictures we did. We are such dorks. Thanks for this, that all seems so so so so long ago, it was nice to remember how much fun we had. Wow, we are getting old! Anyway, thank you, you made me smile and laugh today!!!

Denise was very excited to see that on your web site. I think you remembering and putting those pictures up is the best thing that happened to her today (of course you spilled the beans about her not so innocent ways of the past). She talks about you all the time…you are constantly on her mind. Thanks for thinking of her.
