A White Stone Day

I need to dredge up some of my Alice In Wonderland/Charles Dodgeson-related nonfiction...

That said - today was good. Not that Saturday's Sable Knight wasn't, but today was enjoyable overall.

Even if we did leave home with one shield and come home with two. I learned - if you can't find [livejournal.com profile] domnall on the field, look for him in the shield wall. They're currently both propped up in what passes for a hallway in this apartment.

And they're both going to war with us - I forsee some interesting games of tetris. I think it's also going to mean it may be practical to look into a period pavilion over the course of the next year...


At any rate - even if I wasn't as social as I was on Saturday, I still had a good time. And since he so rarely updates his lj, [livejournal.com profile] domnall had a good time as well. Apart from a bit of worry involving his back - was coming down off a hay-bale and was knocked backwards onto his back - all is good. But he was quite pleased, and we should be starting to come out to Tuesday more regularly. his new(er) helm shall also be done by estrella, damn it

I, on the other hand, shall be assimilated into the rapier blob.


In other news, not a massive amount of Estrella sewing - coat, tunics, and pants for [livejournal.com profile] domnall (all rather simple, and from the current stash) and a few under-dresses for me. I'm going to need to order more linen for new fighting stuff for him - gambeson, pants, and possibly coat of some type. But that's post-Estrella.


And now, I'm going to collapse. Sleep!

<3 <3 <3

I'm currently reading a biography on Charles Dodgeson and I'm also writing an Alice/Lewis story for an ongoing fantasy project that [livejournal.com profile] secondlina and I are working on.

Sure, sure, no mention of your Halo-playing antics. I see how it is :)

Glad you two could make it - wouldn't have been the same without my second-favorite chew-toy to torment. Probably do it again in August and might try to throw something together in the intervening months as well. I will guilt my favorite chew-toy into coming out in August if I have to fly out and drag her kicking and screaming, then the two of you can torment -me-...

Our blob is a proper ghetto! In any case, welcome to it :) Also, I'm right beside you looking for a period pavilion (well, I've pretty much settled on one, so it's more about hunting for funds).

Yeah - [livejournal.com profile] dverning and [livejournal.com profile] weavedancer get maniacal glints in their eyes when I mention wanting to join the rapier lot...

The funds are a bitch - as is the part where we had kind of decided not to get one until we get a house. (And RI/NYC in May...) But with armor, clothing, various essential stuff, and if I take up rapier...
