well it was really only Christmas Day off, but I'll say holidays.
It was a nice couple of weeks off from everything. First off I hurt my knee running, a first for me. It has had me sidelined since Dec. 23rd. I plan to start up again tomorrow with biking and work my way up to running. What that injury did mean though was that between Hong Kong, Christmas food and drink and general fun, I have put on 7 pounds this winter. I am like a bear. That is both nice and terrible.
I started a couple weeks ago when Yen's roommates had a big Christmas party. Amazing Filipino food and my nacho's (courtesy of Jarrod's online cooking show, long distance cooking). Wine, soju, fried foods, noodles and rice, pork. Amazing.
Christmas Eve and Day were spend with me cooking and eating. Beer, wine, sausages, chicken. Also amazing.
On Thursday Bobby came down and we met Will in Sangin for BBQ and beer. Lots of BBQ and beer.
General food, outings etc. made up the rest.
So tomorrow the gym is open and I start again. I want to kill that 7lbs by Seoul (Jan 24th-26th) and just feel less blah (food and drink in excess does that to me).
Overall though an amazing holiday season and a general death to Korean winter blues that got me last year.
