My first Pennsic War

I sat in my car, playing the Pogues "If I Should Fall From Grace of God" at high volume, before putting on my armor and going out to fight in the Field Battle. I raged like a madman... there was a part of me that wanted to get hurt as well as a part that really wanted to hurt somebody. Not a good thing. I didn't see the girlfriend until it was time to leave and drive home. By that time, the ex-boyfriend had ditched her, and she wanted me to listen to her problems. The drive back across five states was very quiet. I remember letting someone else drive right after we hit Indiana. I warned the crew that we should fuel up and drive straight through Chicago, since we didn't want to get off the highway in the city. I fell asleep, and remember waking up as the car is making u-turns under a dank bridge in the middle of South Chicago. The ex-girlfriend wanted to find a bathroom, and the couple had taken an exit and promptly gotten lost. They couldn't find an entrance ramp or a public bathroom that was open at four in the morning in Chicago. Funny thing. We found a nasty 24-hour supermarket, and a sullen teenage checkout girl who led us through a dirty plastic-covered butcher shop so the ex-girlfriend could take a leak.
