Weeks 43 & 44

Knights academy went really well... I did talk to Eilidh and we came to an agreement on our new relationship... and now I have a yellow belt. She presented me in court and everything. Everyone kept congratulating me, I'm not sure if that is the right response, but I'm glad everyone thinks it's a good idea as well.

I turned my new shoes and they fit!!! I wore them around all day and everyone was very complimentary. I sent the pattern out to about a dozen people who requested it after the weekend. I wore them around at ork wars with a pair of socks and they were even more comfortable than without.

Caillin got called up in court and was inducted into the Sable Banner and given a Grant of Arms!

At Ork Wars, Ocho and James the Holy were inducted into the Ram's liver for promoting Shotzie and for enjoying it a little too much.

My camera batteries died just before court at ork wars... Very disappointing because that's where all the cool costumes were. :(

We took part in a Trivia Contest and came in tied for 3rd... but probably could have gotten 2nd with a couple of different answers... there were 5 on the team, and there were discussions about some that where we discarded the correct answer. Our team was Stick-Rock named after Ocho's orky A&S entry.

Steve and I started doing serious research into the DSLR camera we want and couldn't stand it anylonger and went ahead and ordered one... our Pentax K10D should be here Tuesday!!!!

SCA Meeting last night we had 4 new people show up.. I would really really love to have some new blood in the group! and this might just be the transfusion that I'm looking for. We are going to grill and sew with one of the couples this weekend, and hopefully will get them all to go to an event with us next weekend.

We are here this weekend with not much planned. Should be a nice break. The Pardon Johnny Cash festival is going on this weekend though... that might be fun. http://www.pardonjohnnycash.com/

Reading: Maximum Ride by James Patterson. I also snuck in the first of Ceaser Millan's dog books and we have 2 photography books out of the library right now.
