Things I'm not Doing
Jun. 1st, 2010 10:20 am*sigh* I keep looking at money and time and... I think it's time to accept that I won't be doing some things this year.
I'm not going to go to Gemini Festival. There's too much work that needs to be done at our house plus the car needs an oil change and we can't really afford to drive several hours just to dance in the woods for a day or two. We have woods here. We can dance at home.
Burning Man too. I hate to admit this one but, we just can't afford it. If I'm going to take a week off work, I should spend it re-roofing the house. I'd really like to go but... For the two of us, just the tickets are like $500 and then there's another hundred or so in getting there and back. I need to accept that it's not going to happen and move on.
And my 20yr highschool reunion. This is no biggie really. It's been in the back of my head as a "Should I/Shouldn't I?" I feel very neutral about it. Mild curiosity about what happened to everyone but no real desire to go and face a bunch of noise about who I am. So, not being able to afford it takes away the hassle of having to choose.
Ohwell. Life goes on.
