weekend wrap-up
Jul. 21st, 2003 07:10 amgood weekend.
I got to the event in Maine a bit before noon on Saturday...pitched a tent and got to fight in the ship battle, but the battle wasn't set up optimally...so it was a bit dull. I didn't do too many free bouts (maybe none come to think of it) because I wasn't feeling so great. Hung around, chatted, night came, wandered through parties. I met a nice gypsy who lives nearby who wants to do heavy list and combat archery, so I hooked him up with some local people (my semi-good deed for the day :) - semi because it will suck up his time more than he realized). I'm big into trying to help people find the people they need to to accomplish stuff. I think I may be social networking for others lately. It's very odd.
I left the site on a pretty upbeat albeit tired note .....
I wasn't in a very good mood most of yesterday though...I took care of some stuff that needed to be done after leaving the site, and it just made me emotionally ambiguous and tired.
I went to fencing which was keen as I now have some new ideas on grip, etc....but was really out of it for most of the time. I think the parry work I did with Connor is going to help a lot and I have a better idea on ways to use my quillions.
on the agenda for this week, mostly making garb....i shall have to see if i can get the usual suspects together for a stitch and b*tch...
and the falconrdige folk festival
today i am cranky due to lack of sleep mostly....
