burn him!!

Spotted this morning: the big flatbed truck holding the disassembled-not-yet-assembled Zozobra, en route to Fort Marcy Park. Escort (with lights + sirens going) of a fire department SUV in front, four cop cars following. Lots of honking.

Like last year, Bram will miss it. Unlike last year, I'll have some company; Jett + ShRiek have invited me to come with them. I'll be meeting up with them at their place around 7:00.

Of course, it's raining right now.

damn damn damn... need a little more warning, I have some stuff that really needed to go in that fire. Please, next year can you give notice about 10 days out?

There was no bundle this year, although I suppose I could have written some names on a piece of paper...
It was, well... a wacky night. I'll work up a post about it later today.

oh, and Sherry, you said you'd come and deliver your bundle-o-gloom personally!

True...honestly it was the chocolate cake that was calling to me, not so much the burning thing. This year the burning was the draw.
