Honour Your Inner Magpie

calling my WisCon posse....
Hey, if you have asked me about helping out, I have a definite Thing that needs helping with. It's on Saturday night, preparing for the Haiku Earring Party. I am trying to make sure I get dinner, by the simple expedient of accepting a dinner invitation I have been offered, but I also confess that setting up for the Haiku Earring Party is the time I am most prone to melancholy missing of Mike. I keep looking over to the little kitchen space and expecting to see him there slicing cheese and broccoli and stuff, and making his Fordean observations. So it occurred to me that I could, you know, ask if my various helpy friends who have been asking what's needed might want to help out with this particular task. (A bunch of you have done it before, and are wonderful and experienced; it's not as much prep as some parties, as our decor is mostly Earrings On A Table and some Food On A Different Table, plus a Table At Which To Write Haiku.)

Not sure yet on the timing of dinner and all, but as I find out, I'll let you know. Probably I'd set up the team with a diagram, and then join you as soon as I have et.

Let me know if you might want to lend a hand. Thank you a lot. A lot a lot a lot.

(There's a little other prep on Saturday morning, going with me to the Farmer's Market, maybe. But Saturday night is the big thing. Set-up of the table is no longer a mad scramble, now that I have Katie along with me. In fact, she mostly chases me away once I get to the fidget stage, so she can set up in peace. Hee!
