Falling behind . . .
Oct. 3rd, 2004 08:06 pmAgain, as the band America says, "I've been one poor correspondent . . . I've been too, too hard to find . . . "
Life, on all fronts has been busy, exciting and, occasionally, annoying.
SCA life . . .
Coronation was amazing. It was such a joy to see my friends pull off something so complicated in such terrific fashion. Catrin and Julien came through all the hassles and, I think, were still smiling at the end. Eleanor played her usual, crucial, behind-the-scenes role and Master Luke proved to me yet again, that I have been blessed to eat some many of his feasts over the years. (Can you say, "scallions and bacon" and freshly made venison sausage?")
I was amazed tha tthe Travel Fund Auction turned more than $1,100. I had great help from Baron Aquel,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
theresat and a young woman named Joanna, who clearly "gets" the whole SCA thing. evilnicola was unable to help with the auction, but spent the entire day running around for Their Majesties. theresat also did a great deal of running around.
Had a good conversation withkyleri, but didn't get to see much of dreda, risingmoon and tpau because they were volunteering all day.
Other LJ friends there included
antoniseb, asdr83, cristovau, elizabear, em_angharad, emerlion, goldsquare, hawkegirl, (that's Baroness Hawkegirl to you, herooftheage, jducoeur, jdulac, jtdiii, ladytat, lord_strider, msmemory, napoleons_mommy, orangelemon , pax_industria (getting his Order of the Tyger's Combatant, rufinia, sandhawke (who got his AoA and saw two of his and Hawkegirl's kids get AoAs. , scorched_angel, svava (of course)
new_man also got a baroncy, much to the delight of mermaidlady.
This says a lot about my Friends and how I got started in LJ.
I am getting close on my "MacBeth" lines, and I have a rehearsal tomorrow night.
Diehard Life . . .
The Red Sox are in the playoff and are facing Anaheim, starting on the road. I am pretty darned excited and reallu hoping the Twins take care of the Yankees in such a way that we get at least one matchup between Johann Santana and Curt Schilling in the ALCS. I haven't thought much about who I want to play in the World Series yet.
School life and other lives . . .
School has been flat-out insane. We have a serious issue going on, but the administration seems to be handling it well. Classes are big and busy, and since I *am* somewhat special ed myself, I work well with special ed kids, and I keep getting more and more of them.
Had dim sum with my Nataliia's sister Laurie and her husband Jamie. It was great. Jamie and I went to junior high and high school togther, and he's put more than 20 years into the Navy.
More later.
