I need a better Autumn icon.
Another season has drawn to conclusion. I find it hard to believe it is over. Having only made it out 4 days and the weather being so warm for closing is filling me with disbelief. Alas, I know it to be truth.
I had a good weekend and I had a bad weekend. I was very ill. I had a bad reaction to a flu shot earlier in the week which was causing me to be very dizzy and pretty nauseous. I ended up sitting or lying down behind Cindie's booth for a good portion of both days. :( I even considered missing Pub Sing, but I knew that really wasn’t an option for me. I'm VERY glad I didn't.
I was reminded again why Pub Sing is MY favorite part of any faire day at MDRF. The magic that my dear friend Mr. Shaw creates up on that stage ... well, I can only say I wish there was a way to bottle the feeling. I laughed. I cried. I sang. I hugged. I was hugged. I held hands with dear friends. My heart ached with thoughts of those no longer here to hold hands with. I smiled from memories. I let the warmth that is Pub Sing wash over me. I felt surrounded by love of good friends. Tim, thank you for doing what you do so well. I'll never find the words to truly express how much those memories mean to me. Thank you to all the musicians and actors. Special shout out to Mr. Fairbanks ... Darcy, you were spot on with both numbers. BEAUTIFUL. Really.
I saw lots of people this weekend. I also missed seeing quite a few people. I successfully avoided the few I had no desire to see. If I walked by you in a haze, I apologize. Thank you to those who did stop me to say hello. I was nice to see so many familiar faces.
So, until we meet again in Revel Grove, or on other paths, Adieu.
