Friday: dinner at Mongolian BBQ w.Sweetie & peglegasus. Late to bellydance show,
decided to skip it. got lotto tix (won $3 on Mega millions!)
Saturday: breakfast at [aunt L & uncle B]'s. Sweetie came with, but then went
home to work on purple trooper. L&B and I went to Wimberley, shopped.
I found a neat stained glass booth, "Totally Fabulous" where I got a
stained glass framed gypsy/goddess picture with a cool frame. it
rained a bit, but was nice. Got home around 3:30-4, Sweetie was still
working on the trooper. Took a nap on the couch. Around 6, Sweetie was
done, I went off to Rockdale's culture fest. Got there around 7:15-20
ish. Found the event very easily, it was just off the main road going
thru town, found skye_ds & sineater very easily. Visited w/Them, got a
peach margarita snowcone, & just hung out until about 9, then came on
back home. Apparently A & E had some trouble with the chamber's
organizer for the event wanting insurance on the horses, bla bla,
they were both very upset about that. They had the horses & their
chairs near the SCA booth, but the SCA people did not talk with them
at all. One fighter chick (short hispanic lesbian type) hugged sineater
Bye as she was leaving, and that was it. heard lots of the same spiel
re: the critters & her talents, bla bla over & over. Monday at
breakfast she referred to these speils as 'the litany' so I guess
she's aware it's repetitive.
Sunday: slept in, drank coffee w/Sweetie, then went to the bead show at
the crockett center. Spent about $50, not including $4 admission.
Found some nice things: a turtle bead ojime for Elaine, a bat ojime
(no hole, maybe not ojime but same style) for me, Czech beads for me
& sister H & mom & aunt L, and a vintage-style Kali tin matchbox for D.
and 2 strands of magnetic beads that I wore as a bracelet for the
rest of the day. I was looking for pearls, clasps, etc. to make that
necklace I saw in Vogue but didn't find anything that fit teh bill.
went to Discount Cinema w/Sweetie Sunday evening. I saw King ARthur at
6:50 while Sweetie saw Day After Tomorrow. Then we both went & saw The
Chronicles of Riddick (apparently it's a sequel to something called
Pitch Black. I guess I'll have to rent it)
Monday:
Went to HEB for movie food & a HEB gift card for Jose, then Taco
Cabana for bkfst w/sineater, skye_ds & sonar0m. All 3 of them frequently
talk at once, it's annoying. Pathetic, too. They are all just so
desperate for attention. Various bitchery about people in SCA and
horse stuff, but they were mostly done with Becky(?) the Rockdale
organizer for the culture fest who offended them.
Then we went to discount cinema for Shrek 2 and Harry Potter & the
Prisoner of Azkaban. I really enjoyed the Harry Potter movie--I had
not seen any of them before and I think I've only read the first 2
books, but it was a cute movie & the sets/locations were great. I can
see why so many people like writing Harry Potter fanfic & doing role-
playing games revolving around what if they were students at
Hogwarts.
Then home, where I got Sweetie to do dishes & then I ate and drank 2
beers, read, surfed the net, and went to bed early.
yay for 3 day weekends--It was really good. Aside from being a little
dehydrated & some mishegoss with [brother A] bringing Paulie up/not making
it/bla bla/what else is new
