Sumer is icumen in





So, that was that. The Renaissance Party is now behind us, and as far as I can tell, it was a roaring success. Everything was perfect: the weather, the food, the location. All preparations went smoothly; the guests looked dashing in their period costume and even seemed to enjoy wearing all that velvet and lace despite the sweltering heat.

Now that the party's over, I've been feeling extraordinarily lazy. This isn't such a good thing, as Juska's wedding is just around the corner, and I'll be involved in all kinds of preparations for the big day.

On Monday, I'll be heading North with Otter, T, and Nansen. I've been promised all kinds of cultural activities (Kuhmo Chamber Music Festival, for instance), mutton cooked in a pit, and some SHS silliness.

But before that, I think I'll go and take a nap.
