So I found the token in my muffin at the gift exchange tonight. It means I'm the Lord of Misrule. My thoughts when I realized what I had .... hmmmm, guess its time to unleash the Coyote.
There's a costume - a silly cape, a walking stick, and antlers (think of the felt reindeer ones for kids with bells on it). I'm quite certain there will be pictures on Facebook before too much longer. It meant I was the one to set the rules (or lack thereof) for the night. The punishment for disobedience is a soot mark from a cork, a task I immediately delegated to a Minion because I didn't want to actually have to work at it by jumping up every time someone needed corking (with this crowd, that's every few seconds) - its easier to point with the stick and let someone else do the work.
My reign apparently ends next Yule and not at midnight as I had originally presumed. Fortunately, I don't have to wear the costume the entire time.
It will be an interesting year. |
