The seasons have definitely turned - it’s cold out now, but still nice enough to stand outside and let the sun warm your skin.  Quite ideal.

Last night I went downtown with BB to volunteer at the APA film festival - it was a great experience and I met a bunch of really nice people that I’d like to get to know better.  The screening that we were volunteering at was called I for India, and it was a documentary-style piece about a man who moves his wife and child from India to England, leaving his homeland and his family behind.  I typically don’t like artsy pieces but I do like to watch documentaries - this one was done particularly tastefully and the producer took special care to show the ironic hand of fate in how this man’s life unfolded.  I was very moved.

This morning I woke up early and went with friends to take a rueda class, which is pretty much just salsa dancing but more complicated as it involves switching off partners and doing coordinated moves as a group.  It is SO cool!  We had a lot of fun at the class and I definitely plan to go back.  Tried to go skeet shooting afterwards but the course doesn’t let you on until you’ve completed a safety class with the facility, BOOOOOO.

The sun is still up but my eyes are heavy……………….
