And now for more adventures

My friend, aelfgyfu is visiting this weekend--it is her last stop on her Drachenwald tour this summer before returning to An Tir. She flew in last night, so I am taking a long weekend. She and I will do nearby sightseeing today, probably heading out to Gammelstad, and tomorrow, when lord_kjar is also off of work, we will do a road trip and hiking adventure, including such stops as Storforsen. Then on Saturday there is a sale of new and used Swedish Folk Dance costumes and accessories at the museum, and a visit to lord_kjar's parent's house. Finally on Sunday is SCA fighter practice (she has her armour with her, so it gives me an excuse to actually get mine out, too), followed by our normal folk music and dance. She flies out on Monday, whereupon I shall return to work and see how much I accomplish before our summer holiday starts.

In good news, this week I devoted my energy to doing something with my research from Italy, and managed to get the paper draft to a reasonable point to email it off to my boss down there for comment before I had to go to the airport to fetch aelfgyfu. It would be nice to get that one far enough along to submit it for publication. Heck, it felt great to actually do that with the paper from my PhD research last week Monday.

I never have typed up anything about our trip to Double Wars, so perhaps I should say something about that before I put down the computer and go play... ( my report on the War )
