Hi, Tianmm:

Nice to hear from you. Sounds like you have a great Christmas. Hope you feel better with your te
eth problem. I went to Mammoth Mountain snowboarding for a week and got back in town yesterday. 
I will go to the desert to meet many friends who are riding dirt bikes and will set fire for New
 Year's eve. People are waiting for my hotpot in desert. Most of them are Americans except a cou
ple of Chinese people who are from Taiwan. They all eat spicyer food than I do. Amazing! I wish 
I could go with my sichuan folks. If I were closer to your place I would invite you to go with u
s. I miss sichuan food a lot. Tianmm, I wish you all the best and a great great New Year. Talk t
o you soon.
