Renn Faire @ MindSay

The Renaissance Festival was awesome, as usual. I really wanted to get some dragon horns and a fox tail, but everything was so expensive...I did get another melody necklace (see personal pic), because the silver was coming off my old one. I'll wear the new one on special occaisions(sp?).

It was really cold, and kindof slow. There weren't many people there, so there was plenty of room to move about, though. And when we went to the pub, I got to be in Mr. Ford's show! He was singing about Old MacDonald's Deformed Farm, and I got to be the stuttering cow! (M-m-m-m-m-m-mOOOOOO!!!! *stamps foot in frustration*)

All in all, today was much brighter and happier than my past couple of days have been. I got to lose myself all day in an era I absolutely adore. It did have a sort of bitter sweet feel to it by the end of the day, though. We all sang this song in the pub around closing time:

"Here's a health to the company,

And one for my Lass.

Let us drink and be merry

All out of one glass.

Let us drink and be merry,

All grief will refrain,

For we may not and might not

All be here again..."

Kind of sad, isn't it? But true. I almost wish we could sing that song at graduation...it has such a pretty melody.

I wish I had lots of money. Then I'd have everything from the faire that I could possibly want...including a tail. Bethy says that, back in Renn. days, wearing such a tail meant you were "selling," if you catch my drift. Like I said: I want a tail! LOL, Nah, not for those reasons. Just to own one.

I've decided that being a nut wench wouldn't be such a bad idea after all. The more insane you act, the more you sell. And, lets face it: I'm just built to be in a bodice. I have PLENTY to show off. Sure, I'm told I'd be working under Satan himself, but it would be worth it to walk around Renn. Faire, singing about nuts, and saying stuff like, "Nuts! Get your nuts here! Oh! I sell Almonds, Pecans, and Cashews, too! Would you like some of those?" (Those are the three different nuts they sell.)

Not as crazed as yesterday. Thank God. Yesterday was terrible. The problems haven't gone away, though. They've just been pushed out of the way. I'm ignoring them. For now.

"Here's a health to the company..."
