42. Today, I'm off to the Stadium

It's my annual football game, courtesy of a client who doesn't feel strong enough to go alone.

The game time has finally been settled (I never heard of such a thing as waiting until the last minute to announce WHEN the game would be), the weather is promising to be sunburn-producing, and too hot to cover up with clothing, and the Wolverines are not at the top of their form.

It's a job.

I don't do much mass-event stuff. It's always fascinating and repelling at the same time when I do. Attendance has been way down, so that will be something to see. I should bring my mending, but they won't let anything into the stadium, including food and drink (the concession stands have to make a living, don't you know?) rain gear (including plastic bags, even) or anything else of mortal comfort.
