Under a Rock

Its been a while...so here I am up from under a rock in my head.

Funny that it took a dentists drill to break through. Had three more teeth worked on...whoo hooo...I must be a glutton for punishment. I finished Marc Bekoff's book Minding Animals. Wow... a scientist that actually considers the emotional awareness of animals...whodu thunk it. I enjoyed his writing so much I'm considering going to grad school where he is a Professor of Biology at the University of Colorado, Boulder. And ya'll know how much I really despise snow...also got those Stand by Stephen King images going through my head too. "Baby can you dig yo man"

Went to Dag and Ann Marie's Coronation and was bored out of my frakin' mind. Considering just giving up on the SCA all together...major burnout. Of course being on the rag didn't help...don't you just love that phrase? So the universe is a bitch...got phone call from Joe letting me know we have the use of a hotel room at the Best Western with a King size bed and a jacuzi on Saturday...the heavy flow day. So we went to dinner and visited with the MEC crew, got back to the hotel and crashed on a rather uncomfortable bed. Reminded me of a nookie hotel...do I lose purity points for that? At least I got a couple of boxes of TastyKakes! (numphar does the dance of joy)

Lets see, what did I do before that... oh I ditched my responsibilities (there weren't that many to begin with) for the Rivenstar event to go take a class in Chicago with Dalia Carella and Carmine. They are both great teachers! We had a really small class...about 5 for both classes...so we got lots of individual attention. I drove back to Lafayette in time for the feast...gotta have my Russian Cream fix...and got to see Andrew propose to Jessie. The schtick was great...leave it to Rivenstar to make you laugh. Once feast was over, the politics burnout came back with avengence and I had to get outta dodge. Went home and crashed...missed the post rev, Mary Kat's birthday party...I hate it when everyone picks the same weekend to hold everything.
