It’s a good morning. A slow morning. We’re in Indiana, PA for one last day and slowly we’re waking up and choosing our leisure activities. Keola is in bed playing Amy’s guitar. Heather is in bed playing some game that Keola got her addicted to. Don’t fool yourselves, I’m typing in between my turns in a game open in another window.
Soon I’ll get up and clean out my poor Saturn o’ Filth and then that will signal the beginning of the work day, but not yet… not yet…

We had dancers at the Sachenheim Ball!!! These two ladies and I had a great time sort of doing a weird foot shuffling dance back and forth across or first barroom of the evening. The people and the music were awesome. The rest of the chaos was manageable because the people were beautiful and varied, and the music was actually really, really good. About 20 different bands on four different stages. Some visual art scattered around, a motorcycle or two for good measure. I was kind of disappointed by the building itself – from the description of Transylvanian ancestry I was definitely visualizing something a little more Gothic. However, the Sachenheim Hall reminded me more of an old middle school without the cheerful educational fliers. -
One of the four stages at the Sachenheim Hall at Friday night’s show in Cleveland, OH. This whole thing was… interesting. Organization-wise, it was a fiasco. No-one knew really what was going on, we were given a sound system but not really permission to run it – both stages we ended up at were really dark corners into which we were destined to vanish. The first dark hole we took control of and manipulated into a stage. The second dark hole was already established, and though we caught people’s attention, our Bose Soundstick PA was lodged in a corner that muffled it’s already strained sound. -
After the Sachenheim Ball, Heather, Keola and I drove wearily to Oberlin, Ohio to spend the night with a friend we knew through We’re About 9. We got in at around 2am but he was wide awake and cheerful. More wide awake and MORE cheerful were his cats. Oh how cheerful they were. They chased and ran and immediately sensed which of us was allergic to them. -

The next morning, before heading over to the Beltane Festival in Oberlin, OH – I watch Heather tease a cat with running water. I have almost a gigabyte of cute cat videos. Beware.
