Bill Jr Xmas

Nanny: Oh my gosh. This is a Christmas with Billy in the living room when we lived on 81st Avenue. And it’s an album that he’s got up there. 

Bill: Yeah, I can tell. Yeah. And I remember that too.

Dena: Go ahead.

Bill: I just remember that shirt too. I don’t know why. I loved that shirt. It was always a long sleeve shirt I wore in the dead of summer. 

Nanny: Yeah. Yeah. That was your favorite shirt.

Bill: I remember the coffee table in the background too and that chair and there’s that floor pattern couch and that chair and on the right hand side. 

Nanny: Yeah. Yeah. That chair was I think the wing back, that’s the wing back. Whatever happened. I had to, I guess I sold that after so many. 

Dena: No, no mom. Remember you, you took it to Miramar and reupholstered(?) it and then you sold it with the house.

Nanny: I sold it with the house. Good God. 

Bill: That’s right.

Dena: And the funny thing is that I cannot clearly see the album cover, but I can see just enough that I was like, oh yeah, that’s Rush

Bill: Yeah. Yeah. Just the bottom part is all I got to see. Yeah. I actually took that when I in a graphic design class in junior high. I took that album, that same album and I traced it and made a t-shirt with that..

Dena: And Bill, you were the one that introduced me to Rush. And I don’t know if Jimmy Carballo turned you on to rush, Jimmy Carballo?

Bill: Yeah. Yeah.

Dena: But when I was applying to Georgetown University, the essay I wrote was all about the song Closer to the Heart.
