So I’ve survived the New Year so far. Only had one phone call around one in the morning when I had to be up for work by "oh my fucking lord the sun isn't even up yet o-dark-thirty for work, which is 5:15 a.m. I’ve even survived work with no school for two weeks with the kiddies too. They’re making me nucking futs this week though. The first week, they seem capable of having a week or two off and getting along just fine on the unit. This week has led me to believe that if I left the unit unattended for any length of time with no one else looking after the deviant little bastards…. There would be a complete reenactment of novel Lord of the Flies…. Perhaps it would be kinda like Planet of the Apes and they would all monkey stomp each other into the ground and have a final battle royale in Thunder Dome. Picture some insane combination of catastrophe’s and throw in monster ADHD and you’d probably come up with these particular scenarios on steroids or something.
Alas, today I was talking to a SCA friend of mine (I’ll just call him Uncle G). Pretty cool guy, ER doctor by profession does an assload of WMA (Western Martial Arts for you non-SCAdian types) and he’s a generally well rounded individual like most of the SCAdians I associate myself with. There are only a few weirdos that I can point to and usually can’t avoid because they’re either part of a group that I play with or they just seek me out. See Weird Shit O’Meter post HERE from a while back. Anyhoo, I have many groups that I associate with and that’s what makes the SCA so much darn fun. FRIENDS EVERYWHERE I GO!!! WOO HOO!
I found myself in a bit of a quandary because there’s this yahoo group list that I made for a friend of ours that moved away to the East Coast for a while. Once in a while he’d make it back into town and we’d all reminisce about stuff, I’ll call this one Uncle A, and no, the A does not stand for asshole! Uncle A likes to tell stories about events we’ve all been to or haven’t been able to attend. This person is an excellent story teller and has his special way of telling said stories with a knack that’s entertaining in person. Unlce A is even a talented written story teller of SCAdian tales. As my schnookums has duly noted, this person generally tailors his opinions according to audience and does not have diarrhea of the mouth, usually.
So here I am with two different SCAdians that I respect and care about as people that share a common interest with me. I let Uncle G onto the list so he could read up on some posts made on an event they both attended that I did not have an opportunity to attend. There was some cajoling to be had by me; I don’t get to pick on Uncle G often. Had I read ALL the posts that Uncle A had made in sequence rather than out of sequence, I would not have pointed out the group to Uncle G because of some not so nice reviews of a class that was taught. ARRRRRRG! I basically got pants alongside a pal of mine and there wasn’t even any foreplay! Mweh….
It just goes to show yah, yah never can tell. If you’re going to have an opinion of someone, be prepared to get called out about it. It still sucks though. I can site my own examples of stuff I have posted upon this blog and can very well get fired. I could have been fired from Purdue had office mates found the blog while I was employed there. It was and is a consequence that I accept.
Aside from that, everything else is peachy! Adam bought me a historically based medieval vow ring and specified that it was in no way an engagement ring, yet he bought himself a matching ring too. It’s so darn cute! CUTE! CUTE! CUTE! Am I gushing enough? Hee-hee.
Tammolly~ Trying to catch y'all up.
...So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom
And I'll go wearin' my naughties like a jewel
I'm still an angel to a girl who hates to sin…

Yay! You live!
Oh Em Ge GUSH overload!
it is an interesting phenomenon, the writing of public blogs that live forever. I must say, the thought has kept me from writing too much in my own. Fun to read others though!
This is the dilemma on a daily basis. I mean, I could make an uber secret blog that no one would know was mine. I'd just have it to vent the really pissy stuff. Of course, living with an IT guy, he'd know it was out there by looking at the server logs. MWEH... What yah gonna do?
