To a great friend, kumir_k9 . Hope that you have a fantastic day with friends and family and cake!

...which I am probably wholly unqualified to do.  Still, I should put that degree I'll be paying for until my late forties to work. I know it sounds odd to some people, but music has been woven into my life from such a young age that the thought of there being no music is simply impossible to think of.  I can't tell you what my reaction to that alternate universe would be, as I am purely unable...

So there's no real reason for this post, I'm just going to ramble about stuff, if folks feel like reading it and commenting go for it, but it's basically a reason for me to learn what all the buttons and such do. So there's a few weeks left until I start my LARP season, which I have discovered is drastically shorter and smaller than everyone else's. Only doing Ravenholt I'll have four events this...

Start as you mean to continue, or some phase like that. Well, I won't continue to do this, but I should lay the blame for this blog, or journal, or whatever, squarely at kumir_k9 's feet, or paws, peet?...whatever.

Happiest of happies to tetsutora ! (Darnit! kumir_k9 already used all the good puns!) ;)

Things are going well, for the most part. I am happy that LARP season is over if only because it gives me a bit of time to clean up and reorganize. I try to do at least one little wedding thing every day with one more major item every week. This week I had my trial makeup run. It keeps me enjoying the whole wedding planning thing. Certainly, there is a lot left to do, but it feels good to do a bit...

First of all, happy birthday to callierat ! :) The weekend was good. Saturday was keyla87 and dragonbladed1 's wedding. Got up early to get ready and head out to do pictures and stuff. It was great. Everyone (especially the bride) looked awesome, the weather was wonderful, and everything went off (mostly) without a hitch. I say mostly, because partway through the ceremony...
