Absurd

Every year it sneaks up on me.

I know that I will be out of town during the second weekend in July. Winnipeg Folk Fest is the same weekend every year, for the past 35 years.

I have my ticket. I have my campsite.

What I don't have:

• clean clothes
• clean sleeping bag
• food
• beer (or enough beer, at any rate)
• transportation
• sunscreen
• bug spray

Why do I do this to myself?
