Ren Fest - Opening Weekend (Aug 27-28)
Sep. 13th, 2005 06:01 pmOK, so it is a little late. But the proverbial better late than never.
Overall it was a good weekend. Tiring but pleasing. This entry will include some stuff prior to the weekend.

I did get to see the result of a brilliant prank.
thatliardesmond set up the Rat Catcher telling him that he should do The Aristocrats as his joke or at least pretend to do it. He then told the Entertainment Director that Emrys was going to do it and as luck would have it, she was NOT in the pub when Emrys started the joke, so Jack Rackham took a poll on whether or not Emrys would do a really dirty joke. The point of the joke is to describe something really wrong and/or disgusting and/or lewd etc. and then to title it The Aristocrats. Since Emrys wasn't planning to do it; he didn't have a full version ready and had to wing it at the PG-13 status of Pub Sing. Snicker.

PKD - 8/29/05
Sep. 13th, 2005 06:02 pmWell, we wanted to hit PKD one more time during the summer and it was the last chance we would have (given other commitments during the week and the lack of weekday operations after Labor Day Weekend. So, Java and I headed south to meet with a friend, her son and a friend of the son.
( glorious day at PKD )
All in all a tiring but fun day. It was nice to have a no-brain day at the park. And listening to Spamalot again was cool too.

2nd Weekend of Ren Fest
Sep. 13th, 2005 06:03 pmStill behind but I'm working on it.
( Tourney weekend at the Faire )
Tired and sore but happy at the end of the weekend ... not looking forward to getting up on Tuesday morning! Mom and Pete saw the jousts and had a good day at the festival and got to meet some of the people I work with. I don't know if they will be back this season but getting in free for seniors day is good (and using my comps opening weekend).
After dropping off my squire friend at the metro Saturday, I headed to Six Flags on the way home. 4 rides in a row on Wild One. *ahhh* Java and I had gone on Friday night and done some on Wild One and 1 on Superman (I wish that they would have the SAME usable length of seatbelt on each seat on that ride ... side to side, car to car they are not equal. Grrrr to that yahoo who cost us all some comfort in riding).

3rd Weekend
Sep. 13th, 2005 06:19 pmWell the third weekend of the festival season has come and gone. I have now seen some shows. Lord Cromwell is positively evil in my book and the actor is doing a superb job of being positively dispicable. You see it some in the Royal Arrival, you see it a LOT on Princess Mary's Story but now that I have seen the beginning of Return Triumphant, I really can see how he moves people and lives like pawns on a chess board.
Speaking of chess, I still need to see the Chess game now that it is up. I want to catch O's show and the 3:30 scenario. I also want to catch some more of the music in the future weekends (Wolgemut, Corsairs, etc.). I'm having fun but working harder than I have in a LONG time. Some of it is how busy at work I am and that factors into the lack of time. It is worth it though.
