Arrived back in DF around noon. So happy to have seen my family for the holidays. It was a short trip.

Went to see Lucha Libre. Took a van with neon lights and salsa music. So funny. Lucha Libre was surreal and hilarious. Lots of adorable little kids dressed in masks. Everyone was screaming at the fighters to defeat each other. El Porky was an obese contestant whose defenses were to stand there while other fighters fell off him on contact, or to fall backwards onto a group of fighters and crush them all.

Salvador came home smelling like booze and super bubbly. We laughed while cooking a midnight dinner and toasted his last play with more mezcal. Vacation starts tomorrow and we are headed to the beach.

Salvador left for Monterrey with the Brazilians. I have the house to myself with Lina. Talked to her about her family and Christmas plans. Went and enjoyed costras by myself at El Faraón, along with nopales and orchata and a flan. Did a few errands  all in Spanish. I was proud. Going home to spend Christmas with my family for once.
