frisbee

i had a really wholesomely good time at the skeleton park music festival today. it was really great. volunteering is fun AND easy. i was lucky because i got paired with garry for 2 hours at gear-check and the other 2 with irina. so it was nice being with people i know, especially because it was two people i don't see often. it was cool, everyone involved got these wrist bands made of fabric. i really like mine, however, i don't have room on my wrists for another 2 inch bracelet. i'll keep it around though, maybe wear it on more dressy occassions.

as garry said... the hippies were out in full force and it was fun. it was an eclectic group, i knew lots of people (both acquaintainces and friends) and the bands were great. my favourite was infortourist and i bought me a t-shirt!

ooooh, i'm tired now. being in the sun. covered in sunscreen. i'm a little disappointed because i didn't get any of my errands done. stupid odessy travel closed at 3:00 – what kind of store closes at 3 on a saturday!?! i wasn't happy about that.

squito... i should have given you a hug after you told me your crappy news. i'm sorry that i wasn't on the ball. i feel for you. no doubt the same thing will be happening to me soon too. then we can have a pity party.

well i had a great time at the festival and am excited that its not over yet. i'm looking forward to next year already!

trying to find a decent high noon cup of tea.

Hooray for the hippies!!

Infotourist was my favourite, too, but I suppose I'm a little biased.

i suppose. you are what we call a groupie... just kidding. but you do have the hots for the lead-singer. hahaha.

i heart hippies.

infotourist has t-shirts? and i don't have one yet? this must be rectified post haste...

i heart hippies too... haven't seen many lately.

yelsel said...

most definately. they come in brown, grey, blue and orange. i bought a grey one, but considered getting a brown one, but i have an unusual number of brown shirts right now so i went with grey.

i'm sending you some good old hippie vibes right now, via the care-bear stare.

Thanks for the infotourist love, everyone.

The shirts are 15 bucks each. They're American Apparel, which is supposed to be the Cadillac of t-shirts. Just come to my house some time and grab one from my giant bag of shirts. Email me at jason at infotourist dot org.

hahaha, but what about dawna? oh, i guess that's why you gave you're email address. right. i'm quick.

tell me, do you wear your own band's t-shirt or is that uncouth?

I wear my own band's t-shirt, and it is definitely uncouth to do so.
