that month went by fast

much like this entire year, now that i take the time to look back on it.
has it really been that long? i ask like, did i really jump that far?

anyways this past month...
antonio (bona's bf) went back to brasil indefinitely.
bona (my best housemate) went to toronto for thanksgiving.
she left max and nina (her dogs) in LA with a friend.
jeff (another housemate) brought another dog to the house.
jude (jeff's pitbull) is only a puppy, so she needs attention and training.
bona, max and nina have all returned, so they've all met and are acclimating.
it's already a bunch of strange interpersonal dynamics, now's it just more of em.
all these house matters may become moot to me, as i may be moving.
haha. we'll see about that.

interesting stuff i've done...
i went to sacramento with a few friends and met some serrada escrima dudes.
getting to train a bit with guys with experience was fun and refreshing.
i got sick and was a sniffling mess for a few days, but spent more time
anticipating the sickness and trying to prevent it, and then recovering.
i rode my 3rd san francisco critical mass last night and had a great time.
it went on for nearly 5 hours, was faster paced with fewer riders (still hundreds)
and there were at least 3 sound system bikes. so there were always jams!

december has the potential to be way more exciting,
with friends visiting and my short trip home.
so i'll definitely be taking way more pics,
and can hope to make up for this wack month of entries.

happy holidays.
