bad ideas on horseback

[rwx]

Went to a personal trainer appointment on friday; spent the next 2 nights and days drinking frequently and running around on a concrete floor. still feel like canned ass. not 26, obviously. Also factoring into that was something else that I hadn't had for four days by this AM that is part of my daily routine.

i had a great deal of fun at seacompression, but my peak experience was after everyone left on saturday night. this seems to be more or less typical for my enjoyment of these parties these days. too much of a pull between different responsibilities, too much depends on these parties being a success. too many people to try and keep happy to ensure a glorious future. ah, the glorious future.

i always want to make the theme of these parties something like "we make art and then the future," but that's too obviously hippy shit.

New to this year's event was laying out the party out like a segment of black rock city, including a curved road and sign posts (4:30 and Boreal and thereabouts), this added a sort of surreal feel to the event, like the (working) map was getting a little more like the territory.
