mandie_rwSo to speak. Since it's not done but was quite wearable on Sunday, as anticipated!
The SCA event was fun: they did have some SCA things (i.e. men beating each other with sticks) but it was mainly just an afternoon of "let's wear funny clothes and hang out in a very pretty park", which I am 100% down with. We snacked, played Ye Olde Card Games, and went for a sadly abbreviated hike. What's a little mud on my $200 American Duchess shoes? ;) Alas, no one else saw it that way...but I fully intend to make the Imaginary go there with me next time we're both off and it's not repulsively hot. He's a good walker.
The Usual Suspects stayed til about 5:30, when Court had been going on for over an hour with no sign of relief in sight (I don't want to be rude but I want my dinner and I don't care about this looooooooong-ass awards ceremony). I would have stayed longer and gone for more walkies, but I decided wandering around in a giant park all by myself wasn't an awesome idea, so went home and had aforementioned dinner.
Wrote a much more outfit-oriented blog post here, in which 90% of the pictures REFUSE to display right side up, because who knows. Fukkin smartphones. And/or Flickr. Whoever's responsible, they're a dick. There's a few more photos in the Flickr album if you're interested in that sort of thing. They even display right side up!

I actually really like pink, but warm-toned pinks tend to emphasize my...shall we say, charmingly pink cheeks...in a way I don't find especially flattering, LOL. But I really like this one!
