Fest was great.... rejoining the real world sucked.
Scary when you find yourself still passing the horn at 5am telling stories about the good old days with the community elders, only to realize the reason they are listening to you and that the rapt attention being paid by the younger pagans to your stories is because you ARE one of the elders. <shudder>
We killed 5 bottles of mead that night and I somehow still found my tent unaided. Well I did get waylaid halfway and lured into another tent for one last gin and tonic. And there was so much energy floating around that I was awake and going again, sober and with no hangover, on schedule at 9:30am.
