I made plans to come up to Manchester and spend some time with Arc, and then we were going to go up to Faerie Camp Destiny. Well, our ride decided that he wasn't going to go after all and now we're just kind of hanging out around Manchester. We're still working on finding a ride, but I'm not sweating it. If I get there I get there, if not I still got to spend time with a loved one.

Most of the days here have been mellow. It's been raining a lot, which is most of the reason why our ride cancelled. He didn't want to go camping in the rain. I don't blame him.

I learned how to play Donkey Konga on the game cube. It's quite fun. I started reading "A Stroke of Midnight" by Laurell K. Hamilton, and that's good. Arc and I have had a lot of good time together, and we've had a lot of opportunity to talk about his plans for a high-tech monastery built around ethical principles, a monastic society of friends if you will.

My appendix area has been hurting again. I'm taking it easy.

I've been enjoying the time, I just need to keep it mellow.
