I am utterly exhausted.


Summer hours require me to be in to work earlier than usual. I’m just not used to having to leave for work at 6:15. Going to bed at a decent time would solve this problem. And I had planned on doing that. But, of course, last night was SCA stuff and I even convinced Nancy to come and meet me there. Turns out that we didn’t do throwing weapons like I thought we were going to. And apparently Raito (my trainer) is getting ready for a tournament, so all of us newbies have to wait several weeks to continue training. A little disappointing, but Nancy and I caught up, and watched the heavy weapons fighters beat at each other. (I want armor!) And watched Nancy lust after some random scot.

It was really cool to talk again, she’s an awesome person, always makes me feel more creative and excited about things. She’s gotten into mosaics like nobody’s business and we daydreamed about traveling around to ren faires and selling mosaics(her) and fantasy portraits(me) , it would be awesome if I ever got that good.


And we hung out there till almost ten, and then went to Perkins for some tea and salads. And somehow time passed even faster and it was suddenly midnight.


Needless to say, I’m having trouble focusing on things. I keep trying to curl up around my work laptop.


I can’t wait to get home for a nap, I’ve been thinking about it since I got here.


Also, Carlo and I went through all our bills last night and paid them, woo. We were mostly just being lazy, and our mail pile was growing larger and larger, included in the bills was my official SCA membership.

Wedding Things

• Registered Thursday and Friday, last week.(Kohls, JCPenny’s)
  
• Went back on Saturday with Mom to go through the registries to make sure things matched, and we had what we needed.(Kohls, JCPenny’s)
  
• Registered again with Mom at the first place Carlo and I had registered, for the remaining things.(Target) (resisted buying a hello kitty hairdryer)
  
• We now have a church, AND a pastor.
  
• We started looking at invitations, have 2 huge books of them from the printers (I wasn’t really impressed with these sets, I have to trade these in on 2 more huge books(think the size of large shopping bags)
  
• Asked my cousin Sarah to be my personal attendant, she’s so cool.
  
  

Tomorrow is crazy hat day at work, I must remember to bring my Fez. It’s also a half day. Yah!


And today is payday! Woo.


In other news, my brother and parents are in California by now, they left at 5am on a flight, as far as I know, my brothers birthday is on Saturday, but they won’t get back till Sunday night I think. My brother works with the airline. Had a week or so off for the strike stuff though. I wish I could be with them, fun and sun and a family vacation, I don’t think we’ve had one of those since I was twelve.
