Weekend update
Mar. 26th, 2007 05:22 amFriday: Went to a little wedding shower at my mom's for my cousin who is getting married in May. Played silly shower games. Laughed a lot. As much as I always dread going to those things, I had fun.
Ventured into some completely unexplored territory in RP which was exciting but hard to write and very likely will never see the light of day, but was still fun. I still have hopes that this one might turn into a real story someday, but until then, we're having fun.

Saturday: Up earlish to go to an SCA event. Stood around while everyone in attendance watched all of us Baronial Candidates to see if they could figure out who had won. Was kind of funny to hear everyone's guesses. Announcement was finally made. Lots of condolences and people telling us they thought it should have been us. Maybe next time. Till then, five years of no extra work! woo!
Left the event early to get home so I could get ready for a Shindig in the city with the Toronto Browncoats. There were LOTS of people there, including newbies! It's always great to get new people. Sat and chatted with a couple of them for most of the night. Got in trouble with
artemis_primie when I brought
elizalavelle her Buffy comic, but I knew I was in for that ;o) Had a very nice time and stayed till 11pm. Missed
styrofoam_guy though! And a warm welcome to
lionnesss!! Welcome to my realm of rant and the occassional fic post *G*
ETA: Oh, and just for
artemis_prime who wanted to read the cracky fic I was talking about on saturday, the entry is here :oD
Sunday: I went to a fashion show (eeep!) with my mom. Supposed to be a mother-daughter thing, but I had whinged and moaned about it so much, she asked someone else to go, not realizing I had caved and was going with her, so when she called saturday to let me off the hook and my hubby answered, he said, Oh no, she wants to go... Would have preferred just the two of us, as mother's friend liked to change the subject everytime I opened my mouth to contribute to a conversation. Ended up feeling like a third wheel when it should have been a nice bonding experience with my mother. Mother complained alot because there were no seats when we arrived so she had to stand, music was too loud, etc. etc. Embarrassing! But I won a door prize, a nice chenile sweater, a tshirt (that I'm giving to my mom cuz the colour doesn't suit me at all) and two necklaces and some earings. Good deal.
Mother came back to my place after (not friend) just as hubby's mother arrived for a visit too, so we showed off the newly renovated bedroom and chatted a while before they left.
Lazed away the rest of the day, chatting and watching LOST. Relaxing. :o)
Today: Back to work. Must do groceries tonight or starve. No fightpractice as the support staff at schools are on strike and all evening activities are cancelled. Hope to chat, maybe write some more tonight. And today.... writing writing writing! Lots to do!!
