I was supposed to go to the Maine Forest Rally this weekend. Sean was supposed to run for the first time in a SCCA Club Rally, and I was going to work service for his car. He couldn’t run couldn’t because of an unfortunate *oversight* by his cage designer. I was going to go up and spectate anyways, but a combination of money and timing made it sometime I’ll have to do another day. The roommate, , just got back and showed me all the pics from the rally. looks like it was a damn good time. I’m definitely going to have to make it up to the Great North Woods rally. I have to race again sometime soon too. at this rate, it’ll be ice racing season again before I wrap red tape around 12 o’clock on my steering wheel.

My fallback plan was to make it to Irreverence. Basically the whole playlist was people I wanted pretty badly to see, and meet actually. Epsilon Minus, Boole, Stromkern, Null Device, and Stochastic Theory are the ones I was mainly interested in. Great artists, and real charecters to boot. I’m sure the show was fucking stellar, and I’ll have to make it out to the next one with a lineup like that come hell or high water. but this time, the money thing came to bear. so that was off the list too.

So I had thursday through sunday off and nothing to do with myself. On thursday, I slept. a lot. I woke up at 2, ran some errands, watched a bunch of episodes of “The Maxx” and was out again by 6. woke up at midnight and then back out again. making up for lost time I suppose. the rest of the time, friday through….. now, has been very much needed relaxation. I thought it’d suck to have nothing to do during my quasi-vacation, but it was just what I needed. With the roommate gone, kept me company a lot of the time on IM. besides being delightful to talk to, she shares the same tendancy as I have to be wide awake at 2am..

time for some more hardcore video game slacking before Monday comes.
