I'm in fort mcmurray now, and it isnt as bad as i cracked it up to be. Its really pretty if you squint and i am rolling in dough for now. I started out really super keen on buying a bus or camper to live in indefinitely, and still think its a good idea, but odd as it seems i feel like even that would tie me down uncomfortably. Maybe i have issues, Freud? I have found some really nice busses and camper vans to buy for surprisingly cheap (all under 2 grand) and this one in Montana which some woman painted up and used for an anti-meth campaign seems really great. Plus, i just got some emails from someone in hali who likes to bike and wants a roomate in a home without wheels. Such is my dillema. Everyone must recall what a vacillator i am.

bus= 1500 to buy, 400 to register etc, 1500 to get to festivals and hali. 3400 total, plus monthly registration maybe and mechanical probs
rent is 400 a month roughly. Equals 3200 for eight months, but ill likely get stuck on a year lease, which would be 4800
seems like an apt/house is cheaper
cept when it rolls into next year
benefits: bus last longer (presumably/hopefully)
Bus is ecologically (kinda) friendlier
Bus is minimalist lifestyle
Bus is mine and ill feel great i bought it and fixed 'er up
I can drive it to BC or anywhere in the americas and live and work and not pay rent (YK?)
Negs: How will i heat it?
I OWN something HUGE
Way more expensive to get to Hali from west
May actually not be cheaper than a house
Negs: unexpected maintainance
Plus: Its romantic, and so am i. We'll get along great
Additionally and loosely related, I really do plan to go to the Calg folk fest and Shambhala, an possibly Folk on the Rocks. I cant wait! Music and friends all around. And ill hitchhike back to NS afterward.
Who likes electronic music? What kinds? I am digging psytrance lately.
