Title: Fate, you are a cruel mistress
Post by: wanderingbard on March 09, 2009, 02:58:19 PM
Hi all,

I recently found out that my company is requiring me to move to Arizona, and I will be leaving on March 23. I couldn't believe it. And, of course, my first thought was, "but....but what about Scarby!?!"

The company, however, does not care. If we weren't in the middle of an economic apocalypse (or so they tell me), I would probably quit rather than move, but I don't think I can do that at the moment. So off I go into the desert.

This will be the first year in five years I won't have a FoF pass. :(  But I will be there for both days of Easter weekend, if I can manage it. I hope to see some of you there.

In the meantime, until I can arrange my triumphal return to God's country, keep the dream alive. Don't let this economic nonsense kill the faire. I need something to come back to!

God bless all of you, and I hope to see you soon.

We will miss you......maybe you can come back for a visit sometime.

In the meantime there is always AZRF to tide you over.

Nah, the Faire'll be here.
It made it through the 80's it'll make it through this.

What unfortunate timing to have to leave right before Scarby. Good luck in Arizona.

Sarvia Rose is moving to AZ too.  She is on this board as well.

Very sad to miss scarby, or any faire. But I hear AZ is full of all manner of magical wonders as well. But then, I'm from nevada, and actually MISS the desert.

(Is it wrong for scarby/trf to have been MAJOR deciding factors when deciding to settle down in TX?  Ok, that and it's CHEAP here.)

Ouch- yeah, that is a cruel deed to happen to you.
BUT- surely something good will come out of it?  If not, surely you can find a gypsie to hex the higher ups who have doomed you to sit on the sidelines this year! 
Smooth travels and may you find plenty of boxes :)
