My plundering plan is going awry.
April 17th, 2008 by Tess
It turns out that I’m not going to be spending the whole weekend in the Quarter. I took some time to go a little more carefully through the PyrateCon site, and discovered that, unlike me, many people take this quite seriously.
There are lectures and symposia all day long while the pillaging and misbehaving is responsibly restricted to certain times and places.
I would still be willing to pay the price to just go to the rum-intensive bits, but Alison announced quite casually that Prom is Saturday.
THIS Saturday. When I went purple and was desperately wishing I had a cutlass of my own, she didn’t seem to know what my problem was. After all, there are a few days to get ready, and it’s not like it’s Saturday MORNING. Jeez, ma-you always overreact.
So the big parade starts at 6pm. The prom starts at 7. True, it’s only her junior prom and not the main event of her high school career, but… I think I still have to do the mom-thing.
Probably.
