crap

My Sutton Hoo lecture was cancelled. I so wanted to go to that! It's the whole reason I was going to England a week before Oxonmoot. It was to take my whole Sunday, what with travel time, as it's outside of London, and there would be a lecture and a lunch. The lecture I was looking forward to because it sounded interesting, the lunch I was looking forward to because it sounded all hoity-toity, and since I'm not getting to go to my Tolkien/Lewis tea, it sounded extra nice. Not only all this, but my train tickets are already booked, leaving me there for about 9 hours. I'll get free entrance and tour of the grounds, but that won't take more than an hour or two. As it was I had about an hour and a half that I didn't know what to do with, now it's more like 7. And even if the travel agent is able to switch the tickets, I'll have all sorts of time in London, on a Sunday no less so things are closed, that I don't know what to do with.
At least it's better than my other plans being cancelled. I'm a little nervous about the Welsh school. You have to have at least 6 people for them to hold classes, and right now I think there are 3. If that gets cancelled, not only will I be out something I really want to do, but out a week's worth of place to stay. Please, please, please let that one at least come through.

Praying!

Also, I'm confident that this schedule change has something to do with you meeting your soul-mate. ;)

Well, your soul-mate might be a fellow American traveler. From the midwest. :)

you wouldn't get to wales at all if you met the king? hmm...it's not fair that you have to choose one or the other
