This weekend at Fest was my best one so far. Saturday I actually spent some time on the street, and even *gasp!* improvised a teeny tiny bit. Nothing to get overly excited about, but it was a lot better than anything else I've done this year. At Minnesota.

The Dolphin gave me a good idea for future years... I'll have an absentee leman, and do the whole seven years faithful thing, and thus have a nice easy out for uncomfortable situations.

Ooh, and we started dancing Ballo del Fiore - everyone handled being thrown a new dance, with no instruction, very well, and I'm proud of you all, even if you don't know I exist! Go you! With Scarby arriving this weekend, hopefully we won't shame ourselves too much.

One thing happened on Sunday that really threw me off. Another character sent me two Crowns (as some sort of thank you) right in the middle of the Chess Game. Kind of good, because I wasn't forced to try and compose some sort of responce immediately to his face, but it really threw me off my reactions for Chess - I probably spent more time thinking about that than paying attention to the fights or dialog. And really, I have no idea why this guy has taken it upon himself to start interacting with me, or why he even knows I exist. Flirting just inside my personal space, forcing me to try and react to questions, when I am utterly unprepared... grrrr!

Twig delivered a red rose to me at Evening Dance on Sunday. (A rare honour, I am told!) It could have been from Mr. Character, but I'm hoping it's not. If I had anything resembling wits, I could have asked her just one question and solved the mystery, but we all know I can't think on my feet.

I can see his attraction.
(for us uninformed, what are crowns?)

Crowns are a golden souvenir coin that some of the cast at Minnesota have had minted this year. One side pictures the front legs and head of a unicorn rampant (MRF's logo (http://renaissancefest.com/MRF/homeframeset.htm)), with the the words "Minnesota Renaissance Festival" printed around the edge of the coin. The other side pictures a crown (the poofy kind (http://www.bonnieslimoges.com/places/crown.jpg)), with the words "One Crown" and "Honi Soit Qui Mal Y Pense," which is the motto of the Order of the Garter.

Sure! Mail is probably your best bet... When AZ comes around, I won't want to pack anything extra.

Um... harrassing phone calls are probably the best way to get me to send you something too. Call me once or twice.

Yes Ma'am!!

My goodness, I do believe I'm blushing.

Erm... I guess I can tell interested parties in person, if you truly wish to know, but mostly I wanted to vent about being thrown for a loop while trying to make my own paltry contribution to the Chess Match (and to mention the rose, which could mean more than I've said here - that Twig delivered it possibly has Connotations). In my opinion, the focus should be on the script and principals, not little side intrigues between extras. Oh, sorry, "essentials."

Although, it would be interesting if Mr. Character was trying to set me up as supposedly being an informant for the black side. It could have been a feasible sideplot under the Marco/Alaric storyline, but I don't think it would be likely under this Dueling Brothers script... well, maybe if the black side/white side lists have returned to activity levels similar to the 2003 season... I don't know, I'm only on the CappaFerro list.

And please don't feel any sort of need to publicize confidences. I've already done way more of that than is really prudent. *slaps wrist*

Never did I imply that you should shout off the roof who it may or may not be. I wouldn't know him anyway; I was just taking the opportunity to reassure you that you're a damn tease. That's all! ;)

Sorry hun, don't know who it is; but I do know that it's well deserved! I know you rock my world! Wanna play on street this weekend?

*looks worried* Um... maybe... do you have something specific (or even generally specific) in mind? Giving me a shove and saying "go play on the street!" is probably the quickest way to make me clam up.

Options for bits

Well, you do enjoy singing. We could always grab Genevieve for a quick song somewhere. I'm still thinking of making up mini-scrolls as "invitations" to our show; the only thing we'd have to do with those is hand 'em out. OR there's something Maisy's been plotting that you could join in on. OR, we could talk about options when we get there on saturday morning and plan to do something sunday or monday.

Well as it turns out it was who yo thought it was...I'm sorry for throwing you off your game as it were. It was never my intention to do so...How would you feel about the distraction of lunch? Or just a walk across site? i coud arrange shapparones...Just to keep it all civil and properlike.

As for improv...You pulled me into the dance let me pull you into the street for something fun...What say little feather on the wind...wanna play?
