Well well well... I'm back from my weekend of fun. Tell me, if something is billed as a Gothic Victorian Christmas and totes Museum quality collections don't you think that the collections should be more than a 4 foot by 4 foot glass box with 6 pieces of American Girl stuff in them? Yeah, so do I. And if there's a gothic victorian mansion that is supposed to be decorated for Christmas, then shouldn't it be like, I don't know, open to be perused? Yeah, and admission too.

For a place where you can go and shop artsy-crafty things for Christmas gifts.

Hello?

Yes, that's all it was. Paid to go see several rooms to shop for artsy-craftsy stuff. Yes I was less than impressed

But Tali, my adorable Jhari Cat from the NC Renaissance fair, made an appearance at the Christmastown Festival, which is not the even described above. It is free to the public and does not pretend to be period-based. And therefore is much better. Yes, I got 5 books and a CD for $2 which is a good bargain as it was $1 to buy something singly and $2 to fill a bag. Needless to say, I filled a bag.

I also got a gift for my mommy, and some other stuff that I can't quite remember. But in other news, I can now play with Legolas all day at work. Because my darlingest Amanda gave me a Legolas action figure. She also gave my darling Sue (not Susie, just plain Sue or Suzy or Suepey) a Sigmund Freud action figure.

So once upon a time we were doing reading for class, and Sue was reading a book on Soap in Zimbabwe and I was reading Sigmund Freud's interpretation of dreams. Anyway, Jaclyn asked a question about sex, and the reply got into far more detail than either Sue or I wanted. Sue started chanting "Soap in Zimbabwe, Soap in Zimbabwe" to concentrate on her book, and I started changint "Sigmund Freud, Sigmund Freud" Only Sigmund Freud isn't the best thing to read to get your mind off sex. Therefore Siggie became a little Suite theme

So the Sigmund Freud action figure comes up to Hobbit Height on Legolas. So Freud is a hobbit! Great, I smell a parody if I can get my butt onto Photoshop and make some pretties. Yes, folks. The Lord of the Rings, starring S. Freudo Baggins. I just also have to dig out my Freud schlock and see if a ring has any Freudian imagry with it. For some reason considering it is a hole in which a long thing goes in, I'm thinking YEAH.

Ok, well onto Shells and Jen who were darling to me and we all behaved like civilized people and offered constructive criticism as opposed to nastygrams. :)
