Well, that's not entirely true... I refuse work that I don't enjoy doing... so really, even my work is hedonistic. I've been doing farm work around Northern California. It's harvest season and the medicinal growers are in need of help doing extra maintenance around the grow sites. As someone who is used to being outdoors and has worked on farms all over the country, I have some of the skills and knowledge to keep things flowing smoothly. I was mostly building structures, and keeping track of supplies.
I spent a few weeks living in a trailer at a farm where the house recently burnt down. Working all day, keeping busy and trying to stay out of the rains.
The cops came out a few times to check on the prescriptions and make sure the farm was legit. With no real problems any time...
After a few weeks of toil, I took a break for a quick weekend trip up to Eugene.
The drive was beautiful and I was glad to be back in Oregon.
I spent my first night in town watching a band I used to be involved with open for one of our biggest influences, The Devil Makes Three. I danced my ass off and partied hard, eventually finding myself in the green room, spending a good amount of time drinking whiskey and getting high with DM3. Score!
My weekend in Eugene was great, spending time with close friends, hitting all the hot spots and checking out the changes from the last year. Now, I head back to California for a few weeks.
