Monday of soreness

[storytimewithjoe]

I don't know what it is about Mondays. Is it the cosmic forces at work that make Mondays a horrible thing? Is it the end of the weekend? What exactly IS it that makes Monday a horrible thing?

Today I woke up feeling particularly stiff n' sore. *Probably* is has something to do with me not working out yesterday. Well... that combined with shoulder-hunch from the scriptorium and drinking all day. :-)

All in all, the weekend was really nice. Saturday was Festival of the Rose where my troupe performed a 15th century Italian dance for Her Majesty. I was very, very happy with the performance itself. And the event was very nicely laid back and enjoyable. Following the event, we had our own after-party at E&A's. That was a hoot! Of course, my evil Baroness made me drink far too much. BAD Baroness!

Sunday I woke up and found myself quickly annoyed. I had really wanted to begin my day with a relaxing yoga session in the back yard. No such luck. Construction was happening, and the environment was just not conducive. But, the day improved as I found myself hosting the full-day quarterly scriptorium. We got a lot done, and had wonderful company.

Sunday evening was the nicest part of the weekend, as we found ourselves cruising aboard a yacht around Newport Beach harbor. QUITE nice. We sat on deck, drank, and made snarky comments about all of the multi-multi-million dollar homes around us. We waved to the statues in John Wayne's house, snarked about Buddy Epson's house, etc. It never fails - money does not necessarily buy taste

Garden art. Just... not what I would have chosen by any stretch.

You know, I distinctly remember her holding the gun to your head, and FORCING you to keep drinking.

And really, she is just Diet Evil (tm) compared to some of us; BWAAAAHHHHAAAA.................

Thank you very much for hosting the quarterly Scriptorium. I'd hoped that more people would show up, but we just have to keep on recruiting in little bits I guess. I'm sorry I was so distracted with my Vegas trip that I didn't contribute much.

Quit worrying about numbers. As far as I am concerned, if so much as one person attends, that is one person volunteering his or her time towards a much-needed service. We had several people throughout the day, and got some work done. And I am very happy about that.
