I'm sunburnt all to hell. out all day since 8 in the morning at the highlander games at the scottish festival today until like 3:30. Hugo showed up to see me throw the caber... and almost turn it... but not quite. 
I got so nervous doing the caber cuz there were a few hundred freaking people watching me and a guy announcing me over the loudspeaker .." Clint Perry from Aurora... his first time ever picking up a caber. lets root him on. blah blah" My hands were shaking for most of that event. Prolly didn't help. I did ok on the first few events, but the afternoon events were fucking so technical I couldn't hack it. I couldn't just brute strength anything after lunch. I had lots of fun though. Lots of cool guys and comradery. I'm signing up for the Estes Park fesitval and games tonight. I need a kilt of my own and some cleets and some cool socks to match the kilt. Eyeball Dan wants to practice with me to maybe play in the one a month from now.
Gymnastics was so hard after the games today. But Carol thinks I'm doing great. I think I want to start practicing an extra day a week so I can make more gains. I need to eat more though if I'm going to put on weight. I keep leaning out more.
Finished the lite brite table. Didn't actually take much, just long periods in between the work. Hung out with the cool Brandy and Jesse and Misty and Dan and some new girl. Good times.
and this is a whale
Seneca is feeling much better. She was limping cuz she had a blister on her pad. It seems fine now, just need to heal up... if she stops licking it.
Went out Friday to vinyl... it sucked... then to the shelter... it sucked..... then to the church... it rocked. Danced there until they kicked us out. Hung out with Megze and Brian and Dan and Rick and some of Rick's friends. Rick was freaking plastered. That kid has so much energy when he has a ton of alcohol in him. Holy crap! Good times. Hope to go out again this thursday... can't do anything really the res tof this weekend.
Saturday went out just for a bit, since I had to get up for the scottish games. AJ got pretty drunk. And she was very excited to see the cows around Denver. She hugged each one she saw.
I hope this doesn't offend anyone, but SGCO sucks butt lately. Hardly any events, and those that are there are just bands, no threads, no funny banter from everyone.... eh. I'm kinda thinking that that is most of the reason I'm on this stupid site. To meet more people, do more things. Without that I'm just blabbering my stupid journal thoughts each week and boring the hell out of people. And I'm kinda getting bored of that myself. eh. Just a small tidbit from the peanut gallery.
I think I'm going to plan a trip to Las Vegas over memorial weekend. A road trip. AJ said she's down for it. I can take Seneca to camp bow wow and hope that a few other people want to go along on the road trip. Maybe we can get like eight or more people to go and I can fit 4-5 in my car and 4-5 in someone elses car. Eh. Either way I believe I'm going.
Oh and so this weekend I was three different guys flirted with me. One was a bit older and he has a partner, so it was just some cute compliments and friendly flirting, the one guy so wanted me in his butt, or the other way around, don't know. But it was blantently obvious. Especially cuz I think he even said something like that in our conversation. The third guy was the only guy out of the three, and out of any guy I can recollect ...ever really, that I coudl see myself ....um.... hanging out with. Thing is I could have been reading him wrong. He could have just been really friendly and smiley and nice. We talked about tattoos for aminute and he showed me his chest work. Anyway.
I had a few times this weekend when I was in a store or somewhere where I saw some bad parenting, bad kids, sucky people with kids. etc, not to get too much into it, but events that reminded me of some of the many reasons I won't ever have kids.
On a different note, Sidney called me the other day and thanked me for the Serendipity Books I sent her and the letter. That's nice.
Two times this weekend I was asked by a third party if I was mad at someone else (different peoples). I didn't quite get it. still don't. I don't really get mad at anyone. dunno?
tattoo scheduled for beginning of sept. The artist I really want to do it is going on vacation and so I have to wait till then. Already drawing up some ideas for an arm one.
Got my hair cut. eh. not that great. hair... person... cutter... stylist wants to try a little black and a good amount of blonde and my nat color. maybe. Three weeks or so. After my haircut I bought three new shirts from Buffalo Exchange. The best one is white with little roses scattered around it and fits me pretty well.
I want to take advantage of a very slow week this week at work. All I'll be doing is editing and helping write our next paper. Got my grant out thursday. yay! hope that goes well. I need to find some things to do during the weeknights.
Hmmm, any good revelations? ....... maybe what they say about anything worth anything takes hard work, is true. I'm tasting that in many areas of my life lately. ....... Boredom is great motivation for me it seems. ....... oh and to get effort in return you kinda have to put effort out... sometimes more, but whatever.
time to go home and eat and sleep.
