3778The weekend

Friday I did nothing, went to bed early-ish. [Cousin B] was hanging with his
friend Cody and didn't want to go to see Eshta, I didn't want to go
by myself. Or stay up that late, really.
Saturday, I woke up at 7:30, got a shower, woke Sweetie up, got dressed,
and sat around (I had done the food shopping and prep, staged our
camping gear to be loaded up, etc. ) while he loaded the car, then
peglegasus came over and they did kilty stuff,and we finally left around
10:30.
We had a great time at faire. I had made up my mind before we headed
out that I was not going to obsess about getting there on time. The
guys knew we had a beer tasting at 2:30, and that I was trying to
meet up with friends at the tavern nearby at 2, and that was about
all the nagging I did. I did not fret.
We went and parked at the campground, found Jaime and Cam and hung
out with them while they got ready. We actually got in to faire at
1:50, met up with Stephanie, Dave, and Dave out in front of the Leek
& Daffodil. Peglegasus, Sweetie and I went to the beer tasting and enjoyed
ourselves greatly. Then we wandered to the Sea Devil where we spent
the rest of the afternoon & met up with everyone else we knew was out
at faire on Saturday - Michael & Harmoni, with Ross and Jen (Ross is
the lazy subby boy I met at GWNN and have also run into at PNO, he
dated Pace for a bit), Scott in purple and red garb with purple fairy
wings, Max's FB Angel and her friend Ted from Vegas. We sat around in
the Sea Devil for pretty much the entire day. I never did feel like
forcing the issue to go find Rengeek and say hi. Stephanie, Scott,
and I made one trip to a vendor Scott said was going out of
business, "Body Hangings", then back to the jousting arena to watch
the fireworks at dusk, met up with everyone again at the privies in
front of the Sea Devil, and then out to the campground for food, more
drinking, and just hanging out. It was a fine day. Tartanic was
outside jamming after faire, so we stopped and danced like fools. It
was great fun. Strangers joined us. God, I love faire.
We drummed in our own spot for a bit (We: Jaime, Ted, some scot that
came by, and Scott) went to the fire circle for a while. Sweetie walked
me back around 11:30 because I was tired and wanted to go to bed. We
did it and Sweetie passed out, I went to sleep a bit later. Miracle of
miracles, it did NOT rain on us afterwards. (That seems to happen
when we have sex while camping)
Sunday morning, we got up, socialized, had coffee and scotch eggs and
then everyone packed up and went home, with the exception of Scott,
who wanted to go back in and get a cloak from Body Hangings. We got
home 'round 3 and I unpacked, put stuff away and loaded photos onto
the computer.

Then around 6, I returned a DVD to Hollywood video, checked the PO
box, and then stopped by [Aunt L] & [Uncle B]'s. [Cousin B] was watching 60 minutes
with his friend Tage, he didn't introduce me to his friend, they were
showing something awful about injecting dying kids on TV, so I went
back to talk w/[Aunt L]. Tage left shortly thereafter. That was...weird.
[Cousin B] was sleepy and not much fun, vegging in front of Comedy Central -
Van Wilder & 10 things I hate about you. I didn't watch either of
them all the way thru.
We are apparently still on for E. rock & shrooms this weekend. We
shall see. I will be prepared but not have my heart set on it.
