Spent almost a week in Chicago for the Thanksgiving holidays. Loved the shot from the end of the platform here, but couldn't see it with the light coming in from behind.

It has been 100 weeks since I shaved my head. At this point I just have a pretty decent length of hair that doesn't seem unusual to most people.

November 1, 2010 on Via Argentina in Panama City, Panama.

After a nice dinner at Manolo's. Arrived this afternoon and haven't done much yet. Visited Briga (CrossFit gym in Panama City) and got dinner. Met Carlos the Colombian gay guy staying in the girl's room at the hostel.

This was supposed to be a trip to celebrate finishing my comps, and although my defense was delayed, I did finish the exams and I'm going to celebrate it.
