TRF again

    Sunday, November 25, 2007, 11:59 PM [General]

    So I went to TRF again for a total of one day, the last day, this year... sound familiar?  Okay, so it wasn't the last day when I went last year, and this time I went alone... but I did have a hell of a lot more fun.  I got to see several people that I knew from Scarby, and had a pretty good time, even without really stopping to watch the shows.  The bells were amazing though, beautifully rung.

    Anyway, so, I did make some purchases that are building forward for my second character, Bryar.  The most major of those being a pair of nine-button Son of Sandlar boots ^.^ Yes Cap'n, I got Sandlars before you did.  You may now imagine me sticking my tongue out at you and then running away with the pretty leather.  I will still be using my RenBoots for my pirate, Pillows, however.
    The knife that I helped Don make over at Scarby, which is now my favorite pointy, finally got a sheath.  One made custom for it no less.  It is beautiful and I love it.  I'm hoping that the next addition to my leather family will be a new, brown, belt for Bryar.  Either that or the custom leather top piece, but that's a secret and I shall tell no one what it will look like until I order it.

    As well, there WERE a pair of gorgeous wooden knives, elven style, from Hallow Earth... one of which I got for an inordinant deal... which are no longer in my posession.  And nor is the flint-knapped rock-knife from Scarby.  It is an aggrivating and embarrassing tale that I will not be telling people, but I will let you know that before they left my possession, the wooden pieces were beautiful and i WILL be replacing them.

    Other than that, the day at Faire was wonderful, and though I have many months to go before getting to go to faire again... ah, bugger that, one day at faire isn't gonna sate my renfest appetite until season comes 'round again, that's a damned lie if I say otherwise, but it was still fun! lol

    Another Scarby Day

    Thursday, April 26, 2007, 12:10 AM [General]

    Yep, went to Scarby again.  I've got a season pass now, so unless funds get too tight, i'll be there every Sunday.  I didn't realize how bad my withdrawal was until I got a taste of it, and now find myself randomly slipping into basic-faire-accent on occasion.

    Overview of last Sunday:

    Went with my buddy Kyle, his boyfriend Dustin, a co-worker, Angie, and her boyfriend, his son, and her daughter.

    Brought a "city-tittie" to the napper there, one of those white dome thingies that are supposed to mark off the turning lanes.  It had busted off and was lying in the grass.  he said that he could make stuff out of porcelin(sp?), and had done one of those before.  Made a seven inch long blade.  I'm gonna have him mount it on a knife handle next weekend.

    Speaking of which, i bought a nice bow from him, i think the draw is somewhere between 20 and 25 inches, dunno though.  It's pretty and functional, and I'm gonna practice so that my aim no longer sucks.

    Walked around a LOT.  Saw several shows, was insulted quite happily by Christoph the Insulter, verbal mercenary.  It was great.

    Danced the maypole with Angie's daughter, I think i was the only one actually dancing when we were doing the last run though... oh well, I had fun.

    Kyle fell in love with a green cloak from Miles Tonne, I dunno if he's gonna try to do it on layaway, cause it's WAY out of any price range out of all of us.  He and Dustin both love faire now, though, and will probably go back with me soon.

     

     

    Now I know that we all love Pillows, and fear not, she's not going anywhere, but i'm considering creating a second faire persona.  If... no, WHEN, I start acting at the faires, it'll be with Pillows... but I'm considering making a rogue persona as well.  An archer.  The few outfit ideas i have for her garb are kinda cool so far, but expensive, so it's only in the ideas stage.  But... hey... that just means that i get more garb to add to my collection.  Soon i'll have to get a new closet!

     

    Oh well, Going back this sunday, should be a blast.  Much love to all.
