The tri (less than 2 weeks ... tick-tock-tick-tock)
http://www.envirosports.com/events/event.php?eventid=2192&phase=3
I need to goggle/map it, but I am guessing it's about an hour from Beltane.
We are going to Beltane Saturday eve for Sir Celwin's service. I keep thinking that it's lucky that Beltane and the race are close enough to squeeze both into a single weekend. F is going to the one that's this weekend, too, but I am going to Collegium.
We won't be staying late at Belane, though. We've got to drive back to our camp ground and I've got to get some sleep if I'm going to be up at 5:45 the next morning and do that tri-thing. I told F we could stay until 9:00, which really means leave site around 9:30, get back to our campsite around (est) 10:30, and go straight to bed. So I've got my fingers crossed that Leticia is still planning for an 8pm gathering and that it actually happens at 8pm. F has already promised I won't have to "pry" him out of there even if it runs late.
And as if we don't have enough to do that weekend, the love of my life wants to take me to a gun show in SF the same morning we are supposed to drive up to Napa for the race and Beltane. The irony was lost on him. I laughed my butt off, though. The only thing better than taking your wife to a gun show is taking her to one on Mother's Day. He's so cute.
And today's cheer for modern living goes to: drugs
At 8 am I got a visit from the Migraine Demon. Blinding, head-throbbing, light-sensitive, "I wish I could die right now" - migraine. My bad was that I didn't have access to medicine during the onset and it's always a toss up after that if anything will work. However, after 3 hrs of "why did someone stick a nail through my skull and leave it there", the magic medicine kicked in (20 minutes ago) and the RELIEF is amazing. Yay for better living through chemistry.
Projects: I gave up on having something ready for the PPF last week in the midst of work hell. So nothing "planned" for that event. I have my ropa, so I won't have to resort to a Gunney-Sack from the Goodwill. However, on the "random" project front, I spontaneously started to cut down an old dress and I started a new overdress dress. (Florentine, 1480s) I can't set a due date, because that's "planning" and I know that I'm under a anti-planning geas right now. But it might be done this week. Or it might not. But it sure is fun to watch it evolve. I like the fabrics and I'm watching the "Anne of Green Gables" series (at Costco right now). Which I ADORE and I'm having flash-backs to sewing marathons in my basement with Catagon and Sirst. The underdress had hand-stitched lacing holes that had to be cut out. Sadly, this did not result in the perfect fit. Fortunately, I have a Plan B* based on pictorial evidence and in a totally out-of-character mood, I'm completely unworried. Who knows when it will be done, it's all unplanned, so there's no point in stressing.
*(I know, "plan B" sounds like planning, but it's really coincidental and successful research done at the time the information was needed. But saying "plan B" is faster)
