learnteachOr, well, what's in my head.
1. Class is eating my brain. Beyond it? I have no idea. Some minor events. Perhaps join the Peace Corps. I don't know.
2. Events. The mainline SCA just isn't working for me, due to a combination of foo, and barring that, the deadly repetitiveness of most of it. And, beyond that, the sadness of going to old places and finding imitations--sorry, Westermark, after Gerhardt left it was never the same; we came back a little...
3. So, I want to do several non-mainline events, SCA and otherwise. Yes, I know this is my modus operandi. I do it well. And if I don't, I help others do it well. I want to:
A) Finally have music and dancing and a little bit of a masque and wine and food under a full moon. We have all the pieces, I just need to look at the moon for a bit.
B) Viking Thing. Start the day off with some porrage and fish, then in honor of Karl (Charles), have a polearm list, an althing, axethrowing, recital of Beowulfric, wrestling, archery, and Viking Stickball (I'll take Hurley) then have a norse feast, complete with mead. Then sleep like Snorri Pillowslaughter! Let the Tent Ring with our snores!
C) Lake Stow Poetry read. These were held by the BGACG for a while, I'd like to do it again.
aaargh the library computer wants to kick me off
D) Knight errant quest: 20 fighter practices in a month.
that's all for the moment...
But I'm proud of my class.

Stow Lake goodness
Date: 2010-07-31 01:48 am (UTC)I would wear a Regency dress with the poem "Daffodils" by Wordsworth printed on it, and I would always recite that poem. Now it's one of my favorites, even without the dress schtick.
