Duplicate 7 in 7; 10 in 12 road trip.

Well, not exactly...

This afternoon I rolled up to San Francisco via CalTrain to pick up the Lost Campers van to drive to Southern California and back. Surf Camping.

The thing's a trip for sure. After I picked it up, I got driving lessons by taking the bay-bridge and that S-curve thing. And then, 880 on the way home.

It was cool, because I was able to go to the Oxman Hanukkah party on the round trip. I ate several Latkes; some with sour cream and apple sauce and cherry tomatoes. Another few I ate with sour cream and lox. Yummy, yummy, yummy... Dave barbecued a turkey also that was tasty Portuguese and Hawaiian recipe from Sunset Magazine. Dave's BBQ always rules - no matter the critter. I'd love to be there and regret not as the party goes off with dancing and music, but here I am at home preparing and waiting for the Sweet Power on KUSP. All shows have been good tonight. Shit, I was able to get the frequency in Fremont as I drove back.


So I don't know what to do about the trip, but I am on it now I guess... Out tomorrow after I clean up my house and pack up. Who knows what I'll do. Right now I feel like I used to at the end of Track Season, or, teaching. I'm exhausted: work burned me out, but I've also been thrashing at night.

For example: I saw a facebook post from a former student who wants to know the record of consecutive days drinking among his buddies... Ever since I did the skateboard eat for Joaquin and Ethan last summer while camping, It has been 4 plus a night. Get with the program son!

I hope to clean up and sleep well and exercise and get leaner and do some walking, etc...
Eat oranges and surf...

My patience issues are improved - I think... I sat into people watching/listening mode today. I don't know why it is so hard for me to get there, but it is always a rewarding space when I arrive.

This will be fun. Orange and San Diego Counties with Santa Ana Winds. Late summer in Santa Cruz Water Temperatures. (Might even go barefoot, 'though my feet are delicate because of the booties - and my desk job!)

Surfing; good times with people and no conflicts.

That's all I want for christmas.
