Palio stress

[learnedax]

It is now exactly one week until Il Palio. (If you aren't already coming*, why the hell not?)

Golly, this autocratting stuff isn't like in the brochure at all. Enjoyable as many aspects of it may be, I will be very glad to have it over with.

*and are in the SCA, in New England, and not flying to Australia that day (a surprisingly common excuse)

Hey, I'm not flying to Australia until the next day.

My plan is to be there for the fighting; and earlier if you need stuff transported to the event. Then I'm going to bug out for Buttery Birthday Party. That's not my normal practice, but I missed BBP last year.

Well, I thought you were flying out within 24 hours, which is sort of what I meant, and if I recall correctly, possibly even before the next daybreak. But in fact richenza is flying to Australia that day, which is why she's not coming.

I understand about BBP. I don't know that there will be leftovers from feast, but if there are I will try to bring some by, if we finish up at a halfway decent time.
