well, it was an even bigger one horse town than I thought it would be... um, let me rephrase that... it was more netherworldly than anticipated. ah, Conklin... why couldn't you be what we'd expected? who calls their place "Karen's Catering" and actually operates a network of converted trailers on a dusty dirt road with nary a *real* restaurant in sight?

breakfast on day one included the guy next to me saying "you're not from around here. what are you doing?" and "You're obviously not camp people" yup, that's right, we were staying in, essentially, a work camp, the only non-treed area of pure forest for hundreds of kilometers (minus the seismic lines, cutblocks and oil/gas wells). absolutely lovely.

Albert, I suppose I probably should've thought of you too, what with it now being clear enough on the roads for your super low-clearance vehicle to drive again. it's just that most drivers in early spring don't think about motorcyclists, and they're still paying attention to cars. why don't you go down to the race track? maybe this year will be better than last. you never know...

looks like soccer is sundays and wednesdays this year. there is an off chance I'll get to play ultimate!!! still not likely though...

hockey shmokey. I have an appointment to do some serious drawrings.

Although I heard we're winning at 2-1 even though we're being out-shot like motherfuckers.

GO OILE... er... uh, DRAWING!!! w00t1!

Most of my Co-workers are abandoning ship to see the Hockey game! I must be one of the few suckers still working... well not really.

mmm... cack.

wait, what is this again?

I would like to say something interesting right now, but unfortunatley I can't think of anything. Um... maybe.. nah... See you gang later.

mmmm.... cake.
