Urk
I'm back...early. I thought I was starting to feel better on Friday so off I went to War. By the time I got there all I saw were people huddled in cloaks and hats trying to stay out of the freezing rain. I didn't really think much about it because it was kinda cool that after 10 years of going to Potrero it is actually cold and raining for once. Went to see Beth and bought a gorgeous maroon and gold persian, I'm such a sucker for her persian clothing. Got to see most of my friends and huddle with them in my own cloak and fur hat. But the cold thing started to suck after a few hours of downpours and bitter winds, so much so that Cap'n called off the Haflah and most of us went to bed early.
Saturday I got up bright and early since I hardly slept at all the previous night (forgot my sleeping pills) went to go fight rapier and totally got my ass handed to me by the Dragoons on the field. Most of the house showed up to watch this carnage happen. Afterwards I spent quality time in the shower line with Jen and her daughter Steph, it was fun. Did another round in merchants and found a celtic horse patch that will work perfectly for Marks favor. I also picked up a cool belt pouch and a sheepskin fur to sleep on. Went to the arts auction and despite my conviction that the rapier hoods were not going to sell at all they both went for double the cost I actually spent to make them, woot! Then the house meeting where we decided to make Ketill a full member which was all win. We decided to process to Baron Davids vigil complete with 5 bottles of Tullamore Dew, the vigil was really nicely set up and there were a LOT of people there. Got to say hi to Abbey and Adelicia who were busy making sure things were running well then kicked back and gabbed with friends until it was our turn to see David. He loved the Tullamore Dew then got alittle teary eyed when Farlin presented him with a sextant. He in turn gave us really cool favors which we now hang from our golden tridents. Very awesome vigil.
We decided to turn in for the night since I was starting to not feel so great again, took some sleeping pills and passed out until around 9:00 which must be a all new record for me. I woke up feeling absolutely horrible and the rest of the day it didn't get much better, so after court Mark took me home. I feel bad missing out of helping tear down and getting to say goodbyes. But I'm glad to be out of the cold weather and as I'm typing this the kitty has made a new resting place on me and is purring contently.
