the first ever Syracuse Punk Reunion is over. whew. and I will never ever organize another. ever. I feel like a twenty pound weight has been lifted off my head.
it was great to see everyone and chat and hug and talk about how old we all are now. it was a very cathartic experience and a lot of my demons have been laid to rest.
speaking of demons, it is the first time I have hung out with this hard drinking crowd and not had a drink myself. I quit 6 months ago and passed this test with flying colors.
I also re-established connections with a couple very cool women that I wish I had spent more time with years ago instead of focusing most of my time and attention on ill-deserving boyfriends.
so, reunion... done.
christmas shopping... done.
went to the flea market today. found a vintage Kaiser Regula Sprinty camera, made in Western Germany. can't wait to try it out!
a shattered fur coat (rabbit fur maybe?) waiting to be re-crafted into something... maybe a few kitty toys?
a groovy, and slightly odd smelling Nabisco cracker table cloth.
Also got a couple of teddy bear books. my favourites...
