Maze thing, again

[prog]

Spent Saturday stomping around the Davis cornfield maze thing in Sterling with friends. From pre-maze breakfast to post-maze dinner the whole adventure took close to 10 hours, somehow. It was OK but I this will be my last one for a long time. I love the concept of life-size mazes, and I love seeing "normal" people attracted in great numbers to unusual games like this. But as for me, I've seen enough of them for the time being.

I have been able to get into the spirit before, but when I'm not I just end up following someone else until I'm bored and tired and ready to do something else. And then I look up and discover I'm stuck in the middle of a giant maze. Doh.

Deeply unfortunate: Apparently dictator555 and company got stuck in a loop because some pranksters rearranged some of the maze's many DO NOT ENTER sawhorses specifically to trap people. It took them a long time to figure this out, and they emerged an hour or so after everyone else. This makes me sad. It feels like a betrayal, even though it isn't the maze's fault.

There's a metaphor for life in there somewhere. :D
