Ah, girlie, what are you going to do when Redding does IT'S festival/faire? I'd be happy to have you crash here and we could go together

I think its around Beltaine tho so you're ok. Why oh WHY arent there any good Celtic faires for Halloween? (my personal Fave!) although, Chico is the happenin place come Halloween, I must say.......

out of curiosity, what is your "costume"?? we can take this to PM if its private....

I go as a pirate (and started doing that long before the days of Jack Sparrow) and I actually have two costumes. One is a dress, which I usually wear only on Halloween because it has to be dry cleaned and the Faire is just too dusty, the other is a vest/pants outfit. I also have a big hat with lots of feathers, two whips and some leather restraints (thus expalaining the "renaissance bondage" part of my little personal ad), and various other accessories. I really need to get me a cutlass and an authentic looking Jolly Roger, though.

well I guess you can ignore the PM now that you've answered in public...(edit: OOPS, too late!!!)

the Redding Festival is in May (Beltaine) Remember Jethro Tull (For the May Day is the Great Day sung along the old straight track)

so yer a Pirate! COOL! dont know where you're going to get a cutlass aside from ebay tho........What is a Jolly Roger? The skull and crossbones flag?

anywhoo, we can share addys so you can crash here for more northerly fun.
I'd enjoy that, and I think you would too.

We just paid over $3k in bills (TODAY!

) to get us through the next few months (grad school loan money just came in...today! lol). So even though the leftover money is supposed to be allocated for school things and survival-ey type things, I think I am going to go thrift store shopping tomorrow and spend like, $100. I could get four wardrobes with that!

I have a TON of schoolwork to do this week-end. I have four papers and one project to work on, so after my trip to the thrift store and a quick clean of the house, I am going to hole up at my desk and do some work! I wish there was a cool Rennaisance Faire type thing going on here!

Oh wait, one of my new school friends has horses and I may take my step-son there on Sunday and ride. We've had bad weather (North Carolina) so it may be too wet to go horseback riding, but we'll see!

Cool, that means its no where near my other annual events so I shouldn't be strapped for cash.

Yes, a jolly roger is a pirate's flag, though not all have the skull and crossed bones or crossed swords (like the one in Pirates of the Carribean). Actually, every pirate had a different design on his flag. Blackbeard, probably the most famous (or is that infamous?) of pirates, had a jolly roger that looked like this:

Jolly Roger was also a pet rat I used to have.

I'm not at all obsessive or anything.

Fie diddle dee dee, a PIRATE'S life for Meeeee

Saturday is a half day for me but at 12 noon I will be free!!! Sunday and Monday off.....yippeeeee!!! I will be over my friend Jodi's for a nice cookout either Saturday or Sunday depending on our weather here.
Other things I will be doing...I am reading a suspense novel called Have You Seen Her? so I will read more, definitely have my stereo on....playing some cool tunes, and of course, dreaded house work, gasp! But at least I will be able to relax!

I'm going to a wedding. I hate weddings. Like, really, reeeeeaaaally hate 'em. How is it my deal that I've got to buy a gift, go out of town, rent a hotel room, all to attend a wedding of someone I'm not particularly close with and there's a 50%+++ chance it won't work in the end anyway? Why is this my problem? Gah!!

It's not too bad. MOR christian bands. A couple of years ago, I did one where they were going to bring snakes out. I made it clear, in NO uncertain terms, that they were to get NOWHERE near me with the snakes. And, that I would be STARING AT THE FLOOR during the snake part!

Homie- anything for a buck!!!!
