As I write this with my hands, I’m using my feet to finish packing my stuff for Wakarusa.

Although I am headed out there today, I don’t plan on camping just yet. In fact, my plan is to attempt a back-n-forth kinda thing where I try to simultaneously take in both Wakarusa and a great weekend in Fayetteville. Is it possible? We shall see.

If I do end up getting stuck out there, though, I’ve packed some essentials which should allow me the luxury of at least an air mattress under my back and a few bottles of water. There’s wi-fi for the media but it’s limited. I may end up dueling it out with some of the other folks on the press list. Wish me luck.

What’s happening tonight? Well, let’s see here.
