Pennsic Prep

Jun 29, 2009 17:55

Since my arrival here at Quartermaster's place on Thursday, I feel as though we've accomplished quite a lot by way of preparing her place for the upcoming parties that she has been planning for a few mutual friends. I am pleased that a few of the oddball tasks that we had on the back burner for war are completed (Ship's articles, Favors for crew, Boot replacement/repair half-way finished) But I am still buzzing about the others that are waving their middle fingers at me. I really want to get our court garb finished. I'd like to sew up my pirate hat, in addition make one that matches my court garb and if all possible, I would also like to construct a parasol of the same material. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed.

Likely I can see Skwrl's Mongolian Deel and matching hat getting finished within a few days, I just have to draft a pattern. Conchobar's Kimono and Hakama pants will take one-two days at the most. I can sew these in my sleep now. I can make a few pair of wrap pants, fix up the silk ones, and get my son a haircut for war that will De-Stooge what my mother did to his formerly Robert Chase from House M.D. hairstyle.

As for the truck situation, I don't think I can get too fixated on it, its already making me feel very sick to my stomach. The gravity of my financial situation has made me reconsider going to war several times already; but come hell or high water I will be there. That much I can assure myself. The truck repairs and car insurance bill have my belly a bit butterflied. I can only hope that when I get to war all of my worries will be forgotten, at least for a week.
