Mainiacs is a revered term, only given to those who are 5th generation (or more) born in Maine. If you were born in Maine but you are 1st - 4th generation, you're a Mainer. Everyone else is just "a person from away". I came to Maine for "just one semester," but now I'm "tenure track" which means I'm here to stay for a while. As I was in those first few months, I am very excited about this adventure and the chance to meet the great people of Maine.

9/26/08 Apple Pumpkin Festival
I had planned to attend the Livermore Falls Apple Pumpkin Festival tomorrow, but due to the impending rain from Hurricane Kyle, they've postponed it. The website says, "POSTPONED DUE TO HORRENDOUS WEATHER and Bad Field Conditions". Not just bad weather or rain but *horrendous* weather. October 18 . . . I hope I remember. I hope the pumpkins and apples are still good. Actually, that night I'm supposed to go to a pumpkin carving party that night that's BYOP (Bring Your Own Pumpkin). I can just pick up my pumpkin at the festival and head over to the party.
