Huzzah

So... the renaissance festival.

I had a blast. Well, not a blast. A good time. I would love to work there, be paid to dress up in medieval costume and be in character all day. I'd hate the sweat though, sigh.

So we almost got killed on the way there. After I was late to meet Jess and she of course was early. Way early. I of course had a DNA isolation that didn't get done till late. Erm. My fault, again. I suck. So we hit major rush hour traffic. Then Josh her ex brought us pizza cause he works at Domino's but he had to stay and cover for someone, so we were late(r). Both Jess and I spent most of the ride sewing. I spent half, anyway. I just had to sew some snaps on my cloak, which wasn't really worth it as it was too damn hot to wear a cloak anyway. But I did it. Jess only had pieces of her bodice cut out, but not sewn together. She ended up not finishing it. She just wore what she had last year.

There was almost a dead body in the Conoco station next to the hotel. I'm kidding. The convenience store next to the pumps was empty, and the alarm went off. We didn't take anything. We were honest. So we got free sodas smile We were just worried that maybe someone was hurt and couldn't get up.

help, I've fallen and I can't get up!

Jess also had to do homework. She had to film two hours of video at one location, to pick up ambient noise, one hour at one time of day, the other hour at another time. So we spent a lot of time walking around with a video camera.

I didn't take nearly enough pictures. Although I can say that I was squeezed into a corset. And looked damn good too. I even got a rose.

Our hotel room had an ant problem.

They have the best shaved ice I've ever had there. Too expensive, but it actually tastes fruity.

Hammered dulcimers make some of the most beautiful music in the world.

Jess definitely gets into moods. So do I, I guess.

the guy wearing the fop makeup was probably really cute. Wish I could get a cute guy. Of course all the men on the trip were taken. Sort of.

I danced the maypole. Too bad there weren't enough guys to kiss.

There's more. Like the Human Chess match with a cameo by Harry Potter and how I didn't get to shoot any arrows. Where is my bow and arrow set anyway? Erm.

Why don't you im me or send me an email and ask me more? Hell, leave a comment.

I think Gollum's contagious, by the way. He keeps popping up.
