Also learned how to play Elliott Smith's "No Name #1" and now my fingers hurt.
overdressed on my morning commute. wife and i made chocolate chip cookies and watched a couple teen films.
i was offered a tryout for Team USA in the Battle of Nations (medieval armoured combat w/ rebated steel weapons). fairly confident i could make it, but declined based on not having time/money to run around Europe right now. i've fought with three of the current members....good times, good times....

yes, SCA since '92.
for the Battle of Nations you are considered 'downed' when three limbs touch the ground.

Today, I'm heading down to Providence RI because I will be performing in this:

But before, perhaps during, and maybe after the show, I'll be riding around the city on this:

Slim chance, but if you're there for the show, hunt down Mike from Pine Tree State Mind Control and I will give you a free PTSMC shopping bag.
