(Miss Kristi Maddocks plays the Ghost of Christmas Past with photos and memories.)
Here are some snapshots from my very bo-ho holiday season in 1985.
At the time, I was living with Michelle Krone, Jeff Rierden and Keith Lockhart (RIP) in our tiny one-bedroom in-law apartment in the neighborhood around University and Park Avenues. I think Leighton Koizumi was in town for a visit from San Francisco, where he and the rest of the Morlocks moved six months before.
This arrangement left me sleeping alone on the couch in the living room — where I am captured waking up in a haze on Christmas Day.
One of the most memorable features of the apartment were the full-scale murals of cartoon Go Go Girls that our dear friend Scott Ewalt drew on our walls — they were way ahead of their time and adored by many visitors to out pad. (Needless to say, I never got back my apartment deposit!)
