Remember all those crazy storms a week ago from tomorrow?  That was me sitting on the runway.<\/li>\n<li>I rode a mechanical buffalo.  Well, really, it was a mechanical bull, but it was dressed up as a buffalo.  <\/li>\n<li> I went to a kickass Canadian restaurant, which is one of the best meals i have had in N. America outside of NYC.  In addition, I got to dine with <lj user=\"gefiltebitch\"> and <lj user=\"theonlychild\">. <\/li>\n<li>I took some neat photos.  I hope to have them on my Flickr soon.  <\/li>\n<li> I went to a strip club.  Rather, I was taken to a strip club.  In Canadia.  I was taken to a VIP room, where someone was comping the evening for four people with his AMEX black card. <\/li>\n<li> I bought a bottle of Absinthe, for old time\u2019s sake. <\/li>\n<li> I worked a lot, slept very little, and am more-or-less on the verge of total collapse. <\/li>\n<li> I re-connected with an old friend, who I have not talked to in over four years. <\/li>\n<li> I drove in the worst rainstorm I have ever driven in.  I was doing 20mph in my rental with the wipers maxed, and I still couldn\u2019t see a single thing. <\/li>\n<li> I finished an entire bottle of Single Malt Scotch, by myself, slept two hours, then woke up at 6am to do laps in the pool prior to getting breakfast. <\/li>\n<li> I met someone who knows as much about Old English and Beowulf as I do. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I had internet access, but no time.  If I missed anything big in the past week, let me know! <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/images\/buffalo.jpg\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>so, in no particular order, here is what my life has been like since i left town: Had a four-and-a-half hour flight to upstate NY.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"chat","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[422],"class_list":["post-1771","post","type-post","status-publish","format-chat","hentry","tag-exhausted-to-the-verge-of-breakdown","post_format-post-format-chat"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1771","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1771"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1771\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4344,"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1771\/revisions\/4344"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1771"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1771"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/delascabezas.com\/blog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1771"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
