Pennsic fever.
Tonight is the night.
In truth this has been coming for days...but now it is here.
I can't sleep.
Normally, I shut down like a machine and sleep like a dead man. It is a skill I gained over years in the Army.
Sleep for me is almost always easy, automatic and uncomplicated.
Not tonight.
There is a simple word why....but the reason is complex.
PENNSIC.
War comes.
It is three AM and my hands are shaking so hard I can hardly type.
Every time I close my eyes...I am on the field.
It is not fear...it is excitement.
It is joy.
It is longing.
A longing so deep and wide I don't know if I can make it to the other side.
I need drums.
I need to be so beaten and exhausted I can't help but sleep.
I need to know that in the morning my Crown needs my sword sharp and fast.
I need the peace that right now can only be found at War.

Wait...wha?
Ok, quick note from a mobile device....
I am sitting at a suburban Starbucks...anyone who knows me, knows how weird that sentence alone is, but my defense is it's a work thing.
However, I am marveling at an odd ill social function i am bearing witness to.
I consider myself a 'rider'....meaning I not only own motorcycles but ride the damn things every chance I get. Often not to get someplace but just to RIDE it.
As in turn miles on the clock...as in eat bugs...as in get a sore ass and often a weird sunburn.
I am surrounded by guys who are 'living the dream.'
They own motorcycles (several of them $10000+ machines)... And they rode them here to hang out.
At Starbucks.
I am used to the 'bar hopper' riders....the guys who ride from biker bar to biker bar to swagger around and act like outlaws for a ill bit.
But Starbucks?
Really?
In someway, society has failed these people. They can't even get 'being a antisocial badass' right.
Starbucks....wow.
I need to go eat some bugs.
L5 is now on YouTube!!
