evile: I think they're gone. Now my machine is insufferably slow. 	
UGH@!!!!
SkyeDS: <hugs>
evile: I just want to do my 	job and go home. That's all.
evile: ANYWAY, how is YOUR day 	going?
SkyeDS: nods
SkyeDS: it goes, will be happy when it's 	over
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: Randy looked at the first helmet 	that came in and said that 
regardless of what it was represented 	as, it isn't heavy field legal
SkyeDS: which isn't a problem for 	sineater but is for sonar0m
evile: Oh, no!
SkyeDS: Eq helmets 	do not have the same requirements as Heavy, so 
I've sent off 	pics to Laura and Linda, and if they don't Approve then 
I'll try 	to get my money back, or resell them on ebay, and get 
fencing 	masks
SkyeDS: but the boys will have to borrow masks for Bryn 	Gwylad 
because of time 
evile: *nod* Well, that's too bad 	about the cool-looking helmets :(
SkyeDS: if they're good for 	boffer we might as well keep them
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: wonder 	if sineater might like to go to TRF Saturday
SkyeDS: Hugh is 	going
evile: 23rd?
SkyeDS: nod
SkyeDS: anywhere/way to get 	discount tickets that you know of? I 
think like Taco Bell has 	discount tickets...
evile: Maybe a grocery store--albertson's or 	HEB. I don't think 
online would get to you quick enough, plus 	the $2 handling fee makes 
it not much of a discount
evile: 	onyxlynxx is going to TRF this weekend, but roninjedi isn't anymore. 	
evile: http://www.texrenfest.com/tickets.asp
evile: 	the 23rd is the last bellydance & fire show at Natural Magic 	
for this year. More decisions. ugh.
SkyeDS: well now he 	doesn't think he wants to go. sigh.
evile: oh feh.
evile: I 	need to make up my mind about what to do this weekend SOON. 
Too 	many options. 
SkyeDS: he asked some time ago about TRF
SkyeDS: 	I asked him if he wanted to drop an event to go which would 
be 	fine with me
SkyeDS: he said no
SkyeDS: so this weekend opens 	up, and I ask him if he watns to go, 
and he says, no, I'd rather 	stay home, build fence and clean house
evile: Oh well.
SkyeDS: 	(which we could do sunday but anyway)
SkyeDS: already decided to 	give up Drandmir on Sunday because I might 
have two lessons and 	$60 is worth staying home for
evile: that's cool.
SkyeDS: and 	while most of one day is enough for either fencing OR 
cleaning, 	it isn't for both
evile: *nod* I get that way too, sometimes it's 	nice to just stay 
home & putter, get things done, get caught 	up.
SkyeDS: last night I got a little annoyed
SkyeDS: Marshall 	spent 50 minutes of his hour lesson asking to ride 
Jezebel 	rather than Mirage
evile: oh?
SkyeDS: so the last 10 minutes, 	I relent, and put him on Jesse.
SkyeDS: and he spent the entire 	time whining he wanted to be on Mirage
evile: Oh, for gods 	sake.
SkyeDS: and the worst part is then when his mom and dad 	come to pick 
him up, he whines to his mom that I MADE him ride 	Jesse, he didn't 
want to.
evile: whatever!
SkyeDS: well, I 	don't need parents believing that I would force a 
child to ride 	a horse s/he wasn't ready for.
SkyeDS: and she's just nuts, so I 	never know what she's going to 
believe.
evile: *nod* I 	remember her. ick.
SkyeDS: she wants to switch to every two weeks 	and not every week
SkyeDS: I can't say that I'm disappointed. 	even with the loss of the 
weekly income.
evile: *nod*
evile: 	onyxlynxx's ride to TRF keeps waffling, so I told her I'd be her 	
backup. If you wanted to make it a girls' day out, we could 	always do 
that. leave sineater home to do his thing.
evile: 	Just a thought, we don't have to decide anything right this 
second. 	There's still a few days before the weekend, so, whatever.
evile: 	At this point my default is home & NM bellydance show. If 	Sweetie 
acts like he really wants me at the VW campout, that 	would be #1. But 
so far he hasnt
SkyeDS: HK was my first/only 	fire show. Fire show = pretty damn cool
evile: 	*nodnodnod*
SkyeDS: belly dance I can take or leave depending on 	how good the 
dancers are
evile: You should let me light you 	on fire sometime.
evile: The Typsy Gypsys aren't that great, to 	be honest. I dislike 
their leader a bit. (obnoxious yankee 	bitch)
SkyeDS: I don't know that I want to be lit on fire, but I 	wouldn't 
mind playing with fire toys like poi, fans, and 	staves
evile: But the fire is way cool.
SkyeDS: those were the 	other dancers I take it
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: one of them got 	drunk and jumped my case
SkyeDS: I was very cold
SkyeDS: so I 	had my khafiya wrapped all the way around my face, and 
was 	huddled down in my abaya and two cloaks on top of
SkyeDS: 	apparently she thought it was a burqqa and she flipped
evile: Oh 	for gods sake. How intolerant of her, even if it WAS a 	
burqua.
SkyeDS: well yeah
SkyeDS: I was so cold and so 	muffled initially I didn't hear all of 
what was going on
SkyeDS: 	and the boys managed to get her calmed down before I realized 	
enough to respond
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: "you don't 	understand, I'm a bellydancer and I have negative 
associations 	with the burqa (and some other very strong language I 
didn't 	hear all of)"
SkyeDS: ok, so, don't look.
evile: how 	rude.
SkyeDS: she was very, very drunk
SkyeDS: all three of 	them appeared to be when they were dancing
SkyeDS: Dracone put 	them in the shade.
evile: good for him :)
evile: He and 2 of 	the 3 Typsy Gypsies were performers at Extravagasm.
evile: not 	together, but each had their own dance
SkyeDS: <wrinkles nose 	at Gypsies>
evile: The leader, Memserate, or however she 	spells it, used to be 
inthe VW gang. Nobody liked her, all were 	relieved when she sold her 
orange bug & quit showing 	up.
SkyeDS: she apparently isn't popular with the leadership of 	the CMA 
either (as she was complaining to Seneca of the 	ESA)
evile: poor dear.
evile: I have no sympathy for her. 	she's rude and unpleasant to be 
around, so why should people be 	polite and pleasant to her?
evile: Just to be fair, her dancing 	has gotten better since she 
started at Cafe Mundi
evile: she 	doesn't do as much of the ungraceful, ugly 'belly/slam-
dance" 	thing anymore
evile: oops, it's 4. Gotta go. More trash talk 	tomorrow ;) 
evile: *hugs*
