Vappu!
A shout out to all my Finnish brethren, happy Vappu everyone!
Here's a little about Vappu in Finland:

Importantly: Vappu without drinking is like Christmas without presents.
Unfortunately I don't have any student caps and I think I'm short on overalls, too. However, since it's game night around Chez Ronin this evening, drinking shouldn't be too hard to manage. In fact, I still have some of the booze I brought back from our Ropecon trip and have been hoarding. What a perfect time to break it out, hot on the heels of having "oily" Finnish beer and Salmiakki drinks at Copper Gate (careful, link contains boobies) in Ballard last week!
