Sounds great! Best of luck getting the funds together Mel! 3nodding

Anywho, I wasn't here on Wednesday, I don't know if any of you noticed but I got called away for a gig at some hotel. The job was about doing maintenance (clean up) to their computers. I suppose that's much easier work than programming for them. rolleyes

I think I missed a day too... a dear friend invited me to join her family for Easter up in my old home town of Boston, MA and we're going to attend Anime Boston 2008! Woo-hoo!! I'm going to finish making my new wolf ears and tail to match her kitsune outfit, and I think I shall finally finish either my Colonel Zechs Merquise OZ uniform or my Lucrezia Noin Sanc Kingdom uniform... or maybe even both! smile

Anyone else going? It's Easter weekend this year, which is usually a problem I know... I think next year it's Memorial Day weekend, the last full weekend of May.  

[Fauxlorne]

Weird! Jasta I was going to make a friend ears and a tail for a Kitsune outfit for a friend of mine for MegaCon!!! ((that's in Orlando))
Oh yah - I won't be around for March 4th through the 10. I'm going to FL, to visit my sister and her new baby.... I hope it's born by then!  

[hypnocrown]

Well isn't that something? I haven't been doing anything interesting lately. Unless you count the event... mrgreen  

[Fauxlorne]

I count the event! When I kissed Hypno ~ I grabbed a screenshot! ((I just have to find where I put it...))  

[hypnocrown]

He-he, yeah. I saw that post of yers too. I think you left it on the Gaia's Events thread. Which page? I can't remember right now... mrgreen
It's cool you can kiss people here and not worry about a disease or anything of the sort. Heck, you can even go around kissing people without being worried about what others will say (like a BF/GF for example). lol  

[Fauxlorne]

I kissed a lot of whomever... girls / boys / furries / anime characters... *shrug*  

[JastaElf]

I didn't find anyone I actually knew except my significant other, who came lookin' for me in the vampire thread. smile But I got all the prizes and filled up my meter.

Now I'm just concentrating on my day job and doing sewing for Anime Boston... I still haven't made up my mind about Zechs or Noin. Hmmm...  

[Fauxlorne]

*gosh* - I have nothing to wear to MegaCon!!!!  

[hypnocrown]

Yeah, I got everything myself. 3nodding

What? Nothing to wear you say? Has yer BF offered to help with that Fauxlorne?

As for me, it's been a fine week. I posted at the mods diary and I'm gonna post at the user names thread next Monday. 3nodding

I just got back from an SCA seminar for people doing the Equestrian activities. Got to meet everyone and put names together with faces; we had a good time!

But it's good to be home. smile And I got a copy of Gundam Wing Endless Waltz on DVD, so I'm gonna watch that tomorrow when I get home from church. Yayness!! smile  

[Fauxlorne]

I need to find some SCAness going on in the Chicago area... I did this project in High School - - The lure of medieval culture on modern times... I had to do a year long project to graduate... it was really fun!

The Kingdom of the Middle is what you're going to want. Click on the link for the Chatelaine and that will get you going.

Depending on where in Chicago you're located, you're probably looking for Tree-Girt-Sea, Grey Gargoyles, Rokkehealden, or Vanished Woods.

Wowie!!! Thanks Berz!!! -- the name Kingdom of the Middle - sounds like we really love Twinkies... or Oreos... rofl  

[Berzerker_prime]

LOL. rofl That's going to conjure up some wonderful images for a while!

The name comes from when it was founded at the third kingdom in the SCA. Kingdom of the West was the first, then Kingdom of the East. So, naturally, in between them, you had the Kingdom of the Middle. The names are antiquated now, since there are 19 kingdoms and portions of the original three kingdoms have split off an become their own kingdoms (I live in Northshield, which used to be a Principality of the Middle, for example).
