This past weekend was SantaCon in San Francisco, so of course the Nudist Santas were out as well. It was a beautiful day, the sun shone creating just the right amount of skin temperature warming to be out naked in the 60 degree weather. Everyone seemed to enjoy us and have a good time except for the usual batch of negative nellies, the funniest one coming from a women shopper who stopped to take our photo with her iPhone and then yelled at us, "You are not as pretty as you think you are"!

Today is my last class before my week of finals. It was an interesting semester, exploring US history during the Gilded Age and the Progressive Era as well as German Literature from 1900 to 1920. Many parallels between my two classes and what is happening today such as the questioning of enlightenment thought and the supremacy of the rights of the individual over the good of society, the meaning of language and truth, the regulation of business as well as the regulation of morals.

After the break, I will be on to Graduate School.
