Birthdays and Outings
Nov. 17th, 2008 08:17 amFirst off, a very happy belated birtday to
compasstarlady, whose birthday was this weekend, as well as
dispairbear. Have a great year!
This was another crazy weekend. Friday morning I had to:
- borrow the van to get to storage to get stuff I needed for Saturday.
- meet my erstwhile BIL and project manager to get a ride to pick up my car from the shop.
- pack car;
- meet the vet at the barn so that Brandee could get a float (minor dental work).
- stay with Brandee until she sobered up from the anestesia
- drive to
misagillian's
- discover that I'd forgotten to bring any of my costumes.
- borrow something to wear from Gillian. :-/
Then it was off to Tarnmists. Stayed at Jed and Rosie's, which is alway a good time. :-) Saturday Tarnmist had a 'day in the park' event and then their Harvest Feast. *Incredably* beautiful weather near an (almost) southern CA beach at a super nice (if tiny) city park. Much smoozing. :-) And, of course, I ate way to much and it's shown up on the scale. :-( But the Best Part was that
misagillian got a Court Barony from HM Kara (and HM, of course, but he couldn't make the event)! Adding to the joy was
ianhess getting his well deserved QOG (because, as HM explained, he's Just That Guy). :-)
Had to drive back Saturday night so G could be back to sing at her church Sun. AM. Crashed on her couch. Sunday morning, after the obligatory trip to Starbucks, I went to the barn for Brandee's yearly clipping. Saved all the Paint Princess' hair so that J/S could use it for helm padding. (I admit it makes me smile to think that my sweetie will have a helm padding made from hair from My Little Pony ;-) ). Thanks again to Zinaida for once again doing the clip job.
After more smoozing and lunch with Zinaida and Marguerite I got home to tackle 2 weeks of laundry. Oh my wild life. ;-)
Enough for now. I'm almost done with Sarah Vowell's new book, The Wordy Shipmates, so I'll be posting something about that in a few days. And there's some Party Planning in the works, and I'm itching to post about that ASAP. :-)
