The whole trip to Canada had a surreal quality to it... I drove up Saturday morning to Vancouver for Cloud City after spending an hour debating if I really wanted to go or not. I was tempted to blow it off completely and go with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
faecat and her buddies to Rocky Horror Picture Show Saturday night, but figured it was best if I did something to keep busy the whole day in the mood I've been in of late. It was just damn odd how similar yet different Canada was, and ironically the only food I had time to get while there American fast-food. Canadian customs officer was a damn cute blonde girl. The American customs officers were entirely unfun overweight guys. Go figure. I did manage to catch the only Living Force event I missed in the 2 years since the campaign started at the con, which is both cool and a serious indication of how little of a life I actually have.
Got up early Sunday morning for the long drive down to Tacoma for the TERRA Beltaine ritual. I made it to the park with about 10 minutes to spare, then got lost trying to find the site--thanks todatavore for walking me through the website directions over my cel phone. Made it in time to take part in the Maypole dance and the feasting, which was cool. Afterwards, went out to coffee, a movie (Identity), and dinner with some of my Tacoma pagan buddies which was nice.
All in all, a decent weekend although I think I'm still on that edge of the pit of despair that has loomed in my consciousness for so many years. One day at a time, and try not to think about the fact that the women I'm still hung-up have long since moved on and left me in the past...
