moe and the dogs are okay, thank ganesha, but the car has definitely seen better days. we won’t have an estimate until at least tomorrow, but the guy said that he thought it was a total loss. in spite of the fact that our insurance is paying $16 a day towards a rental car, we still might not be able to afford a rental car, because the rental agency wants to charge us $38 a day for their cheapest car. if our car is totalled, then we’re going to return the rental car right away and buy a new car, but if they decide to fix our car i’m not sure what’s going to happen, especially since drunk puppet night and the moisture festival are both coming up soon…
speaking of which, in the process of cleaning out the car, i found a couple pictures from the moisture festival last year. we’re beginning to gear up for drunk puppet night, which starts in portland this year, on the 17th and 18th of february. as i sort of expected, we’re having a grand total of one rehearsal as a group before we start, and we’re rehearsing in seattle before we start in portland, so there will be no tech rehearsal at all. i don’t even know for sure where it will be in portland, although i sort of hope it will be where it was last year (i just checked – it will be!), because that will mean that the tech stuff will be split, and i’ll only have to worry about the sound. the following three weekends, which will be the last weekend in february and the first two weekends in march, drunk puppet night will be held at the columbia city theater.
