Sometimes living in Madison has been tough - with my frequent absences due to travel, it's sometimes hard to fill up the time when I'm in town, espeically weekdays (not to mention the exhaustion that sometimes leaves me without energy to do Another Thing). This summer, though, has been different, and yesterday I had to choose between two wonderful events.
Maybe this sounds silly, but it really stressed me out that things didn't sync up well and I had to juke one group. And that - that stress - is a wonderful problem to have; I was able to note down a song AND won both games I joined later that night (though with some guilt for all the lying I did for one of the victories). I like my friends. :)
