Maximum Relaxation

[l33tminion]

Camp was extraordinarily relaxing. Spent most of the time reading, did a bit of yoga, walked around the island, and had long conversations with my family. After camp, we had lunch in Concord, NH, and I took the bus home to Boston in time for karaoke (and a jaunt to the Sunset afterwards). The weather continued to be poor: All the nights were cold, and half the days were rainy (Saturday was rainy, rain let up on Saturday in time for fireworks, but returned Monday night and didn't stop until Thursday). It was cold enough that I didn't do any swimming or boating all week, which hasn't happened before. Only one person commented on my improved fitness, but basically everyone mistook me for my younger brother (which, given that the guy is much thinner than me, is good enough, I suppose).

Reading list wasn't nearly as long as last time because my second selection was a really long book:
Reinventing Collapse by Dimitri Orlov
Anathem by Neal Stephenson
The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol Adams
2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl by Daniel Pinchbeck

I am now mostly resynched with real life except for a ton of podcasts that I have yet to catch up on.
