Not resolution. Goals. Back in my Taekwondo days, our master had us turn in our 10 goals for the year and recap what you’ve accomplished the year before. Guess I’ll start that tradition here on the blog this year. 1. Explore Kung-fu. I did like Taekwondo but as strange as this may sound I’m looking to do something more flow-y. Dance-like. Capoiera would be cool to explore too. 2. Drink more water: one glass in the morning and one before bed. Ah, the yearly goal. I tend to give up after trips to the bathroom in the middle of the...

I also took the bus home after week of being shuttled around by my carpool buddy and got to say Merry Christmas to my other bus buddies. My cousin Nicky called to ask if I want to go the Rose Bowl...

It’s a Christmas that doesn’t feel much like one. When I told Brandon I wasn’t going to put a Christmas tree up this year, he reached over to feel my forehead. “Are you okay?” he asked, feigning concern.
