Official 12th Night "Hope I Didn't Forget Anything" Check List
The Khan, thoughtful fellow that he is, wishes all his guests to arrive calmly and safely at the event. His wizards and wisemen have conducted exhaustive studies to ascertain ways to insure this, to wit:
- (1) Fill up the gas tank before getting on the road.
- (2) Pull the all-nighter, if necessary, on Thursday, not Friday night.
- (3) Avoid domestic altercations while packing the car.
- (4) Bring this page from The Crown Prints.
- (5) Bring money, credit cards, check book, and automatic teller cards2
- (6) Pack costumes and accessories (jewelry, hats, pins, pouches, tights).
- (7) Label and pack table setting (including plates, goblet, utensils, and napkins)
- (8) Wrap and pack presentation(s), if any; don't forget to contact Master Bruce Draconarius at least one week in advance!
- (9) Wrap, label, and pack 12th Night gifts.
- (10) Pack any necessary medications (aspirin is always good).
- (11) Pack warm mundane clothing for your smalls3 (and the trip home).
- (12) Pack cloak, cape, shawl.
- (13) Pack instruments or props if you are performing.
- (14) Turn off the oven, the iron, the computer, and the curling iron.
- (15) Give the address of the site to babysitter/relative staying with the smalls at home.
- (16) Double-check this list before leaving.
1 The Sanctuary had been rented for a specific amount of time, so the normal Grande March had to be shortened and court absolutely positively had to be on time, to prevent additional rental fees.
2 What ATM cards used to be called.
3 Smalls = children. The term went out of style and was replaced with "Youth"
