Walk and Talk

Two things I got to do a lot of this weekend. Which is handy, given that those were two of the main things my summer was lacking.

Friday night ethicsgradient chatted with me as we walked around North Adams. Saturday, I bantered with g_me and k_ericson as we explored New Paltz. On Sunday, I hiked around a NY lake while talking with ppaladin, a barefooted galorette, and a high-heeled muskatgumi. And Monday, I walked around Williamstown picking up my poorly-thrown frisbee while relaying my score in hexadecimal to kmunson779, shellaby, mhorai, and silvarwyrm.

Meanwhile, I remain incapable of logistics. Normally I don't set things up. This time, I carefully planned out rides in both directions and my hotel stay. All three of them didn't want to work out as I planned. And if my original plans had gone through, nothing would have worked out anyway, due to other circumstances too stupid to recount. Suffice to say I hate plans and plans hate me, but I got where I needed to go thanks to some of the aforementioned folks. Oh, right, and congrats to kimberkit and entropicangel.

Now it's September, and everyone's back to school. Maybe they should take my courses.
