Back in Cali

I'm back in California and the jet lag is finally starting to fade. I swear that it's much more difficult coming west than going east! It's nice, albeit a bit strange, to be back here and I'm glad that I'm getting a chance to catch up with my friends. I'm pretty lucky that people let me dance in and out of their lives this way. I'm rarely around for long periods of time anymore and I imagine that must be frustrating for people. It's certainly a bit frustrating for me!

Speaking of being busy, I'm still planning to attempt the www.nanowrimo.com challenge. I'll be attempting to write 50k words of a novel in November but considering that I'll be in Las Vegas working on the WSOP Final Table for nearly a week, then travelling to England to work on a TV show there for Party Poker for over a week and then possibly moving into my new place at the end of the month.... well, I'm setting myself a lower bar. If I can crack 25k words in November, I'm going to be really happy with that. I'm still shooting for 50k but I'll just be happy with a lower number. I guess the whole point was to get myself writing again and if I let myself feel that anything less than 50k words is a failure, I might just not do it at all. It's going to be interesting to see how it plays out and I hope that next year I have a clear November so I can really focus on trying to do it properly.

After a crazy November with only 10 days in Santa Barbara, it looks like I'll have zero days back here in December. Party is sending me to Europe to do some work there and then I'll be off to Canada for Christmas before returning to Ireland for New Year and to play the WPT. Phew. Crazy schedule. I need to figure out a better way to make sure that I'm eating well and staying healthy while I'm on the road because I've definitely noticed myself getting a bit tired and lethargic from not eating regularly enough. Any good tips from you all would be gratefully received in the comments box!

And now I'm off to look at one more apartment in Santa Barbara before I make my final decision on where to live. I've seen some great (and awful!) places here and I'm totally ready to just get my stuff unpacked in one of them so that I can feel like I actually 'live' somewhere before I take off in November. This is a really great time of year to be in Santa Barbara as the weather is amazing and there are all kinds of food festivals going on. Time to go out and enjoy it!

Here's a photo from one of SB's great festivals. This was Fiesta a year or two ago!
