Announcement
On September 10th, 2006, for the first time in my rose selling career, I will not be present at the New York Renaissance Faire.
"Oh no, Bubbles! Say it ain't so!" I know, I know. It's terrible. I'll miss you guys!
"But WHY must you miss faire? WHY??" aziraphalesshop's mother* is getting married. Unfortunately, it will cause more problems if I don't go to the wedding than will result from my missing faire.
I was very disappointed and upset when I found out that I would have to miss a day of faire for the first time ever. I had hoped to have a perfect attendance record, even before euph0ra started offering incentives for that feat. Of course, this is the first year she's doing that, and it's the first time I'm missing. Go figure.
There is a bright spot amidst the darkness, however. aziraphalesshop's mother and her fiance have asked me to photograph the wedding. Having never done this before, I wouldn't feel right charging them for my services, but if the pictures turn out well, I figure I could start a small side business. It's just a thought, but we'll see.
Also, the wedding's not 'til noon, so I get to sleep in!
In conclusion, mark your calendars. September 10th all of you will be cavorting and having tons of fun at faire, and I shall be at a wedding for the crazy people.
*Note for those new to my LJ: aziraphalesshop is my boyfriend of three (fabulous!) years, Rich. His mother is completely insane, and I don't particularly care for her. (She is completely oblivious to that fact.) Her fiance, Norman, is also crazy, but somehow manages to be the stable one in the relationship. (He's significantly more likeable.) The capital of Kansas is Topeka, and there will be a pop quiz sometime next week.
