(and gents)
'tis getting a wee bit boring here and I haven't said "Hi" in a while. I've been working my little hiney off the months of September & October - I think I managed to pack in 4 trips in 3 weeks at one point (San Francisco, Denver, Oklahoma, San Francisco) - and my article on the top women in MMORPGs has been well received & a few internet sites picked up and publicized the magazine's news. *quiet squeal*
As the year winds down, what do you re-enactors do over there? Retreat into your basements, sew & do research and make new little re-enactors? Over here, the "universities" ramp up. In November, I'm signed up for a Culinary Symposium, a hands-on class on cooking from primary sources and a Weaving Workshop. I drooled mightily over the Inter-Kingdom Intensive Embroidery Symposium in Northern California but could not swing the trip - apart from the fact that my eye-doctor made me make the choice between my eye-sight and embroidery quite a few years back...
Oh... and I'm going to a Steampunk Convention this weekend. Many piccies forthcoming. Lecture tonight on 19th century weapons!
They all ate mud in the Middle Ages you know. All that stuff that looks like food is actually different sorts of mud imported from Phoenicia and Carthage by the Romans. They stockpiled it and it was lost during the Dark Ages then re-discovered. Mud-eaters the lot of them.
Dave H will back me up, he used to do muddyevil. _________________ Rifleman LaLa

The SS Gurt Britain would be awesome for a steampunk do, I can't imagine anywhere better (The Crystal Palace?). We are attending a re-enactor's party there in January and sleeping on the highly haunted boat among the mannekins, oo-er. It is a great museum, and they have done an excellent job on the reconstructions, they also employ lots of historical interpreters, which is nice. _________________ Rifleman LaLa

They did, it's true! I actually studyed Early muddyevil which was all about Vikings who went around stealing each others mud. _________________ You want me to make you what? And by When? Listen mate, Jesus was the only carpenter that could work miracles!
