Positive!

I am positive I am not going to Dicken's this year. :(



But really, the thing is, I'll miss seeing my friends, especially the ones I rarely get to see, but not the parking, the drive (Moby the Van is having troubles, new ones) the crowds, the concrete floors, being inside the sheds...so I'll express my christmas spirit this way, and send cards to those friends I miss at Faire, especially Paddy (who is often West) and Diana (who will be wearing Sex on a Stick tomorrow, OMG!) and Katherine, and Scully, and Fionn and the brew gang (who I can see locally) and Fencer Pirate (who I should wander up and see in the City) and all the rest. And Michelle, organizer of corsets, and Lodema of cool pottery, and...

Instapoem: Diana would a hunting go / Tied into her weapon with a bow / Go and see the 1 PM window / At Dark Garden, and say "Hellllllo" (nurse)
(And take a picture for me, please?)

I'm also skipping out on another party--because I don't have the right dress. How weak is that? Very, but when it's not together, it's not together, so instead, I'll prep for the next party in the sequence.

And ask this question: IF there was a fondue do at my digs in Sunnyvale in the intermediary week, would anyone want to come be cheesy?

There it is! Oh, and a big shout out to Rebecca, who put up with my grumbling while we walked to the Farmer's Market. And told me to get out and see people at the Dicken's Faire. She's the best.

JT,

All good reasons to skip the Faire this year :)

Oh, I was NOT putting up with your grumbling...In fact, I found it quite entertaining....grump, grump, grump...

And count me in for the cheesy goodness...

XO

Of course!

I'll be going tomorrow and would be happy to drive you, if you're interested. I tend to get there before they open.

Other commitments will keep me away for tomorrow;

but thank you very kindly for the offer! I hope you can come by for fondue and conversation.

Thank you. I'd be delighted but it does depend on when.

Perfect. What may I bring? Would you remind me of the place?

Re: Other commitments will keep me away for tomorrow;

[identity profile] learnteach.livejournal.com 2009-12-28 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Please bring: Your charming and inquisitive self; a cool hat if you have one available; a bottle of wine (Chardonnay, two buck chuck, works fine).

Re: Other commitments will keep me away for tomorrow;

[identity profile] finickynarcane.livejournal.com 2009-12-28 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Wine was a given. Hats will require a choice. Perhaps the yard wide Edwardian is *NOT* a good choice. I have several others.

A reminder of where you are could be sent to suetoo at svpal dot com. Thanks.

No prob! It's going to be a mob scene, should be fun. Cheese, chocolate, and I'm thinking Flambe' for desert.

Oh yes, fondue! Wednesday would be lovely! :-)
