Well, I am back. I went to NC on Friday to see a friend who goes to UNC Chapel Hill. Also visiting her were two other suitemates who drove in from CT and DC. Well, let me inform you not to wear anything on a plane that is adorably cute. So I have this buff/tan colored sweatshirt that has a kitten on the front in a nubby material. And it has stripes that are darker tan with little mice and yarn balls on it. It's cute. Apparently, it screams "terrorist". So on Friday, I went through security and discovered that my black bitch boots set off the detector. So I get searched then. Well that is fine with me as it makes me feel safe. Someone sets off the security sensor and they get searched. Yay! Go Security.

Well, upon boarding the plane in Syracuse. STILL in Syracuse. I got searched by the same lady that searched me before! And she noted that. "Hey! I wanded you at security!" *rolls eyes*

So anyway, I survive that ordeal. And get to Philly. And the good thing about the Philly airport is they have rocking chairs in the middle where you can go and relax and sit in a rocking chair! It kicks ass!

So then I get into RDU and get picked up by my aforementioned friends, and we go out to eat, and this guy comes to our table and says in a cheesy pick-up line voice "wanna see a magic trick?" And I'm like oh-kay, all freaked out. Well, I was the only one who didn't know that this is what that guy does on Friday nights at the restaurant. He does table-side magic.

So surviving that, we went back to 'Manda's apartment and watched Spiderman (peter parker is one big dork), went to bed on air mattresses (yes you sick people, 4 girls sleeping together) and woke up and got ready for Renaissance Fun!

Renaissance Fun was remarkably fun. As I expected it to be. I got to wear my Saxonwear, which when I bother to upload my photos, you can see. Actually go here I think. If it doesn't work, well go have fun with a porcupine. So we get into the faire and see falconry and shows and go shopping and I buy a charming little jingly anklet to go with my chain mail and a lamb-skin toy for my kittens, and then I encounter Taliesin. Well, The Midsummer Knight's Dream (Fine Art Fantasy Puppets). And adopt a Jhari and name him Taliesin. Basically, he's a cross between a bat and a cat. It was difficult, involved lots of violin playing and candles. But he rocks. And I got asked if I worked there. But alas I didn't. So I adopted Tali.

And that night we played Munchkin which is a card game marketed as "D&D but without all the RPing crap". So you start out as a human, but as you go through the dungeon (by way of drawing cards) you fight monsters and can become different races (Halfling, Elf, Dwarf) and classes (Thief, Warrior, Cleric, Magician). And you acquire armor and weapons and curses and stuff. And it is very fun.

So on Sunday, I had to go home (Phucking Philly). And got to RDU and happily got me an A&W Root Beer Float. And it was good. And read my book, and got on the plane and landed in Philly (Phucking Philly) and I have exactly about 1/2 hour to get from terminal B to terminal C and get dinner in order to make my flight to Syracuse. Only I get there and find out my Phucking Phlight Phrom Philly is delayed! Turns out the plane is from Indianapolis which was in the middle of tornado nastiness. And we had to wait for another plane from Houston. So instead of leaving at 7:35, my Phucking Phlight Phrom Philly Phlies out at 8:45 almost 9. Phortunately, the pilot catches a good tailwind and has permission to phly in a straight line phrom Philly to Syracuse. But still it's late and I'm pissy.

So that's my weekend.

Until then Click Here and go visit Jen, Shells and Susie. Done!
