There weren't any woods or hills or gullies, but there was plenty of running and bopping and generally having some good, barbaric fun. I iz a happeh bunneh.
I'm sure
diermuid,
demimortal, or maybe even
princessboredom will have more Amtgard-y stuff to add, but I just wanna say I had a blast. Lots of good-humored people -- including teens and little kids and old fogeys like me -- plenty of new stuff learned (most of it too geeky to repeat here), and gratitude for the resources to rent a hotel room for the night.
Sitting at my desk now, giggling to myself, and wondering what I'll say if somebody asks me where I got the sunburn. Or the puffy eye. Heh. I'm feeling surprisingly good today -- just some mild soreness, except for the sharp heat of my sunburnt neck. Yeah, that's attractive. Feeling clear-headed and energetic and overall pretty darn happy right now. I think my body really likes all that activity.
Oh, yeah. Do any of you closer friends recall the improbably white "bunny fur" vest
agrnmn's mom gave me for Christmas a few years back? Well, I wore it to feast and court on Saturday night...with black wrap pants, lug-soled boots, red lipstick, and sunglasses. I felt like a Barbarian Rock Star Glamour Queen. Ha!
I'm sure
