Summer Vacation
I ate raw whale and I ate raw cow liver.
I hitchhiked to Fuji Rock.
I got lost while hitchhiking to Fuji Rock with my friend, and ended up in a infintesimally small coastal village where we ate just-caught (by the owner) fish and Abalone, and then discovered a hidden Shinto Shrine on a small and very tall island.
I barely slept for 5 days while going to/attending Fuji Rock.
My friend and I bought a ticket only for the last day of Fuji Rock and we ended up getting free 3-day backstage passes from the Roxy Music guys. Because of this...
I got a bunch of free beer, didn't have to wait in bathroom lines, got to meet a bunch of bands, got to watch a bunch of bands from the sidelines of the stage, etc.
I slept beside a river.
I bathed in a river while people watched.
I slept on a tennis court and then in a tree house because the tennis court was too cold because all I had was a towel.
I kissed a girl I had been dancing with outside in a mudpit for a number of hours while the sun was rising over steep mountains and sun beams were exploding through a heavy fog, while there were gigantic plumes of flames shooting up behind us in front of the stage while the DJ was playing.
I met Thom Yorke.
I saw fucking John Fogerty play like every CCR song.
I turned 24 while the Scissor Sisters were playing.
I went on a sweet picnic date at the Jodogahama Nat'l Park.
I went on another date with another girl and then was like, whoa, I can't do this - you're wayyyyyy too nice.
I went to Tokyo, and met with a bunch of friends, ate ramen, drank beer, head-banged, and whatever else.
I saw my friend's new kid, Haru, kind of sort of stand up for the first time.
I got sick and stayed in my hotel for a day.
I found out I can apply for a position on Peace Boat for free after my contract expires.
I met with my Dad's friend's lawyer in Tokyo for some very inspirational words.
I found out my computer is busted with the same problems again, but Apple's fixing it, sending it, and giving me a bunch of new programs for free.
I got tired of travelling, and I'm in Morioka waiting for this tropical storm to end so that I can walk to training tomorrow, get that boring shit over with and head back home and get back to a simple life.
I had a pretty fucking awesome last 2.5 weeks. How've you guys been?

Laces out Dirty Dan
Mkay... lets get a friendly league going. Hey wait, I've already set that shit up!
http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/register/tos?league_id=320134&password=accrossthesky
The following is a quote from an automated e-mail I received shortly after creating the league: "To allow other managers to join your league, send them the League ID# and Password. In your case, the ID# is 320134 and the Password is accrossthesky." I've also sent the invite via yahoo to some of you. Could someone please forward that to me, because I have no idea what I wrote in it.

bike's out!
Finally I have gotten back on my bike...even if it is the hottest day of the summer, I must say there is nothing quite like smokin a doob and an early morning ride on seneca lake to work...I spent the past few days weeding the garden that I basically disowned after planting it. It was such a bitch...just wanted to know how everyone else's growing greens are doing. I have been eating beets for the past week...Victor planted far too many, but our onions came up and yellow squash, still waiting on the other squashes...i have no idea when to pick those, i'm guessing fall? But the carrots and potatoes are also coming along quite nicely, and i'm up to my ears in basil! yikes. My other herbs are also growing like weeds...phew.
So, I got a facebook message from Jonah and I think he might come up sometime in August, most likely during the week though, so anyone else who wants to come is definitely invited. The one thing if you are thinking about coming is that once August hits, I will be busy with harvest stuff so I can hang out nights and what not but I won't be able to take any time off from work.
Has anyone stayed in Letchworth State Park before??
