Home from the Green Man Festival. Great weather except for too much wind in the microphones. Day started with going to church with Breno in order to get a ride south -- nice service and it felt good to actually join in worship with other members of my faith, which I hadn't done in a while. Trying to remember whether I'd ever been to a Lutheran service before (I don't think so) -- I'm not terribly picky about what sect of my faith I sit with. Had lunch, discovered the Greenbelt Food Co-Op carries the brand of soap I like (which very suddenly became hard to find a month or two ago), listened to other bands, chatted with folks I hadn't seen in too long and met a few new cool people; saw plenty of cute children and cute dogs; shot a few rolls of film (and a bunch of digital shots). Timed the meds right so I didn't start hurting really badly during our set; managed not to fall asleep (day started kinda early for me). Especially pleased to get enthusiastic compliment from Diana McFadden after our set. Listened to KIVA and part of next band's set while trying to find ride back to Baltimore -- which involved meeting a couple more nifty folk (which meant fun conversation during ride home). Very tired now, of course. Very nice little festival (which I already knew; I'm repeating it here for the benefit of folks nearby enough to go to it next year who didn't get there today). Now to sort out why I can't a) launch audacity on the bedroom Debian box using the 2.4 kernel or b) log into the Debian box if I boot it with a 2.6 kernel. Or, more likely, just rinse the sweat off and fall asleep in front of the telly while poking at LJ.

Oh! Did not break a string today. :-) Did break a fingernail. :-(
