1. What do you find funny?

How much room do I have??
-Mel Brooks, Robin Williams, Tim Conway, Benny Hill
-Puns. They may be the lowest form of humor, but they fascinate and amuse me.
-Well-timed slapstick, like Conway/Korman on the Carol Burnett show.
-Voices and accents. I giggle nearly every time I hear " MOTHER! " from Daffy. Hearing ( Read more... )

I did something I haven't done in waaaay too long last night- SCA-related research! I want to update the trumpet class I teach, and will be teaching next month. Fortunately, I have new books to browse and glean more info from and make my neat class even more super-spiff. I already have several facts to find a place for, like trumpets being used ( Read more... )

And I finally got my arms as an icon:

We day-tripped Buffalo for Ice Dragon. (ok, technically it was only Hamburg, NY) Day-tripped it. We headed up ~7:15 this morning and arrived home at 10:30 tonight. The weather/roads weren't too bad heading up, not like tales we heard about them the night before. And coming back was dreamy since the sun was so nice an melted all the crap off the ( Read more... )

The event went quite well today. It was nice to see so many people there for dancing, etc. I am particularly happy with the choir's performance; I thought we sounded quite well in a nice venue with a sizable, cooperative audience. And I've never seen anyone dance to our performances, so that was a bonus, both with Tanzen und Springen and Belle ( Read more... )

Dear Lord I've forgotten how much fun a post revel is, and got to host it to boot. I haven't been up this late intentionally in... months. Granted, tomorrow morning will be a B*?!h, but it's all worth it.

I'm still sore from fighter practice yesterday. Don didn't make it, so I had to borrow armor from Thomas (foget his last name...) who was most helpful and gracious. The helm fit quite well, though it was the way the gauntlets bit into my left forearm that displeased me. I got whacked on good by Byron of Haverford (Char), who worked some drills ( Read more... )

Today was a busy day. I had that meeting at Chatham, lstrobel got to play with Elizabeth (friend from church) and had a blast, and today was the Æcademy. The meeting went well enough. Some changes from last year, more construction in the dorm where I teach, I still have the same small ass dorm room to teach in, but now I have to teach percussion and ( Read more... )

I must destress. lstrobel danced on both of our last nerves pretty handilly there at the end, and taking a wrong turn on the turnpike didn't help. Though I drove a total of 30 miles out of my way, it's nice to know there's no charge from exit 28 to exit 13 ( Read more... )

My sweetie's making a viking dress for tomorrow, and I'm really excited about going to War Practice. I'm hoping I'm coming home with 18' of rattan, seeing Kaminari folks, and having lots of fun.

You know, it's nice getting excited about SCA events again. I've missed it.
