It's a long night at work tonight. Not a lot happening, but I only got 4 hours of sleep, so I'm feeling every minute drag on... I'm missing Phoenix some; haven't seen him in a week and a half. I hope to see him this evening, before work tonight, but it's not a sure thing. I love him. Plain and simple; I want to be around him. He makes me feel at peace. That's something that shouldn't be taken for granted. I really appreciate him.
In other news, less than a month until we leave for the Fair (the Oregon Country Fair, for those not in the know). I'm plenty excited about it. I've got a location to camp at, I have the nerd lams designed and ready to go to print, and I'll be picking up some camping gear from my dad this weekend. Been chatting with Chopsticks online a lot lately; we are mending things between us, getting past the hurt and on to the friendship. He's funding the Nerd lam project, too, so that's nice. I have a budget of $40, so that should be more than enough. I'm also excited to bring Phoenix out to his very first Fair; he's never been before, and he's starting out just like I did - assisting on pre/post security crew first go 'round. We have training at the end of the month, that should be good; get him aclimated to the vibe out there, before the big event. I'm also going to be designing the Fireworks Crew lam, and there's a chance that I'll be reimbursed for the cost there; Double Dub wants 50 made, even though the crew will only be about a dozen, lol. Plenty of extras for trading. I wonder if Phoenix will be a laminazi like Chopsticks and I, collecting as many as we can from as many crews, camps, and groups as possible. I think it's a lot of fun, but I don't know that he'll think about it. I'm excited for the whole thing, anyway. The music, the food, the lams, the costumes... It's a special time of the year.
