Footage, holiday express
One of the guys that was at the pull up jam posted some footage he shot with his phone on FB. It just happened to be while I was doing my pull up set. You can get a good sense of the crowd that was gathered and why it was cool to have them cheering you on.
There were a bunch of professional looking videographers there that seemed to be filming everything. I hope to find that footage at some point. If you want to see the video this still was taken from, click here.
It seems hard to believe that October is here already. That means that Halloween will be here in a blink with Thanksgiving and Christmas arriving shortly thereafter. (as long as the world doesn’t end)
I am dreading this holiday season for obvious reasons. It will literally be the first Christmas I have not been in an active relationship with someone in something like 28 years. Talk about a blue Christmas…

No no no! Don’t dwell on what you haven’t got, but think about what you have:
– the chance to do WHATEVER you want: cook whatever you want, drink whatever you want, watch whatever you like on TV
– no in-laws to please
– much-reduced chance of family arguments
– no guilt/trauma about buying presents
– your chance to do something alone that you haven’t done in a very long time
Make the best of it! Plan in advance so you won’t be bored and lonely and just enjoy yourself. And don’t get bogged down in that whole sentimental “it’s a time for families” crap – really it’s just another day.
OK, pep talk over!
