3.18.19 Post-Calithon

I should have enjoyed Calithon more. Per marathon tradition (to some degree), I was sick the entire event. This whole month has been an expectation of that too. I moved at the end of February and have only set most of the new place up, except the kitchen and stream room. The moving week, I had about 10 hours of sleep. Then my work schedule got shifted to mornings and screwed my sleep even more. Then I was super stressed about something the entire weekend of Calithon, that seems to be evened out now.

South-Central California is stunning. It's just beautiful. I should have hit the beach with some people and walked around a little more. The drive there was rough with so much sun tiring us out. Direct Relief HQ was awesome. The only negative part of it was the practice room was a little too small. I only feel like it needs a few more tables with TVs and increase the space slightly. All the people I knew were fun to see and I wish I didn't feel like crap when seeing them. I will likely go to Calithon next year.

I said the stream was going to come back in March, but I thought things would stabilize by now. I actually won't know my new work schedule until the end of the first week of April. I'd honestly would rather on the back-end until Mid-April to re-kick it off.

Can't wait for SGDQ though. Will be filled with pringles and Master System Ghostbusters I'm sure. The only thing that needs to fill another speedrun void is another event between SGDQ and AGDQ. The 2-ish months inbetween AGDQ-Calithon-SGDQ are well-timed.
