Post-War Update

Hearing my laurel raventhourne cheering from the throne was awesome. scribe_ari's comment after court made me grin. "Congratulations, you just won an inter-kingdom arts competition. You don't suck."

My pickled eggplant, as you can see above, didn't suck. I won the category in the A&S competition and am happily plotting further ideas. Next year's categories look good and I'm already planning. It may become a distinct possibility that I have to drive down to Tucson the night before the competition to pick one of 'em up, but I'm more than willing to do so in the name of subtelties.

Otherwise, as war often does, I've got more plans floating in my head. This time, at least, they're more along the lines of 'here's stuff to do that will make existing plans even better.'

Oh yes, and food.

Ryan and I chatted more. We're going to Pennsic this year it would appear - multiple things have aligned, which is blissful. When we know I've got the time off, we'll handle the pre-reg and sort out shit like camping (eek! never done out of kingdom war).
