Title: The Adventures of Brimstone Blue and Erik the Green!
Post by: Blue66669 on May 22, 2008, 10:24:36 AM
And so it begins.....

We're pulling out of Houston here in about an hour, and I couldn't be more excited! I can't wait to meet all of you, and give everyone huggles and smoochies!

We'll be driving into Baton Rouge to meet with Capt. SIN and the Bayou Scoundrels, and then riding together the rest of the way to TN.

I'll be posting here along the way, reporting any strange happenings, funny moments, or Molden "gas station" sightings. Here's to seeing all of you wonderful people in TN!!!!!

Getting ready to head out from the Shadow's Hold, the FaireNews crew is packed on on the road, handfasting T-3 and counting

Don't look for Molden in gas stations this time  He was spotted in WalMart this time.  ( Molden, Elvis, Molden,Elvis, Weighing the Possibilities )

So, we made it back to TX, with all the memories and stories packed away for perusal. As soon as we're able to lift the fog of inebriation long enough to see what actually happened, I'll be posting the account of our adventures in Tennessee

Blue, you guys need more blood added to your alcohol system or are you about back up to speed?

MISAdventures.... well, for some of the time, that's pretty accurate LOL.

We're back to the mundane now, living our "life between faires". Some things I've learned from RenDezvous....

1. Riding in a trailer wasn't as glamorous as I had expected- very dark and bumpy.
2. Taking Jager shots in the town square RIGHT ACROSS from the cop station was not one of my brightest moves.
3. They don't breed em too smart at Ft. Campbell (love ya little brother).
4. If you look really sad/anxious/desperate to the right person at Walmart, you can get free contacts.
5. Always bring baby wipes and a spare change of clothes to ANY event involving Ettes, Teers, or MOLDEN.
6. I'm starting to believe that there's really no such thing as "cannon".
7. EVERYTHING rolls downhill.
8. Poison Ivy is NOT sexy.
9. If you drink enough kinds of Loki, the flavors all begin to run together.
10. Watch where you're driving in the middle of the night. There are bunnies and you may miss the turn.... BY 5 MILES!
11. Always know where the nearest bar and White Castle are located. You never know when they'll save your evening.
12. Leather takes 2 days to properly dry.
13. SET UP AND STAKE DOWN YOUR TENT PROPERLY!!!!! This may prevent a rain induced collapse.
14. There's nothing scarier than having no bars, being in the middle of nowhere, and realize that there are crazy county folk circling you wielding chainsaws.

*peals of laughter ring through the Shadow's Hold*

OMG Blue, you outed me. No one's supposed to know that I can be sad or anxious and NEVER is the succubus desperate. But you're right, I was all three that day.

For those of you who missed that story, I'm referring to #4 on Blue's list. I arrived in Tennessee on Friday morning, got in to the room around noon and unpacked, only to discover that I had left my contacts in Florida. After having finally gotten over the obstacle of potentially having to go skyclad to my handfasting, I didn't want to go blind or bespectacled instead, thus the trip to WalMart and the various looks.

By the way, my kudos to the optical department at WalMart. They searched until they could find one correct contact Rx and another that wasn't perfect but would work. Hip-Hip-Huzzah to them!
