The mauvli

The current events in Pakistan remind me of quote from a book — I cant remember which one. “The communist are fighting to get control of country, the mauvli is fighting to take control of our souls. ” [SIC] .

We decided we would grab a nice dinner at Alexanders Steak House and then I would do the 10k run as part of brazen running.

New years eve started fairly lazily with us not having much to do since we had done all of the logistical stuff over the weekend. We went enjoyed a nice dinner at the steak house (separate post) . The actual ringing of midnight was on the bart ride back home. And then the next day ran a hard 10k
