Sorry. I went away again without posting. I meant to post a brief something every night. But I have a good excuse. I was having fun.
I visited a friend in West Virginia. And another friend from a different part of Kentucky drove down to Charleston, WV, too. And then we got up early the next morning (well, not really, but early for a day off) and drove down almost to the West Virginia/Virginia border for the West Virginia Renaissance Festival.
And it was fab.
We picked up a to-go order from a filipino restaurant on the way back. Which was also fab. It was my first time eating filipino cuisine and I loved it.
We slept in on Sunday, then watched WandaVision (I started it at my mom's house a couple of months ago but never got to finish it), and then suddenly it was the middle of the afternoon and I still had a three+ hour drive home.
It was good to finally see friends again. It was good to see the wonderful costumes and hear good music and watch amazing equestrian archery and joust shows. I didn't dress up this time. I was too tired to fool with my full-blown fairy costume, it was too hot for anything else but the urban fantasy kilt garb I'm working on and it's not ready. Shaina didn't dress up either. There will be other ren faires to dress for.
p.s. Yes, I'm over being coy with names. At least until someone asks for anonymity.
p.p.s. I stopped on the way(ish) to Charleston to drop off the birthday present kimono/robe for Bestie.
update: I'm falling asleep at work so decided to take a quick break from spreadsheets to shop for new elf ears (I've been planning to update my ears for over a year). The best elf ear company I've found online also has a growing range of glue on horns for all occasions. Okay, maybe that's not exactly how they advertise it. And I think horns would go nicely with the urban fantasy kilt thing I'm working on (especially since I'm still in the "oooh that looks cool. and that. and that. and maybe I could do that." design stage). At least it's all taking my mind off various anxiety and depression symptoms. Sort of.
p.p.p.s. Don't mind me. I'm not really here. I just forgot to add the tags.
