This past weekend, three things at a time

[slipjig3]

Three things about seeing Hitchhiker's Guide with rafaela and the kids:
1) I cannot believe that we hadn't made it down to Spectrum Theatre in Albany before. I mean, they actually show documentaries and stuff with subtitles there. Caveat: We must get directions to I-787 in advance, unless we really want to see some interesting neighborhoods again.
2) I take back everything bad I said about the casting before. Mea culpa.
3) Young kids don't care a lick about confusing scripts and Hollywoodized endings, as long as there are talking sofas and alien fly swatters that whap people in the nose.

Three things about contradancing:
1) It'd been entirely too long for me. Contradancing still the best way on the planet to meet people, even if I was sweating like it was monsoon season on my head.
2) I want a bouzouki. And a shawm. And a bodhran. And that fiddler.
3) I don't care if she's a lesbian. She's still cute, and she makes good eye contact. (No, not the fiddler.)

Three things about hanging out with zarhooie:
1) She's an awesome cook.
2) And gives awesome hugs.
3) *happysigh*

Three things about the Sunday night informal SCA gathering:
1) I wish I hadn't shown up on Tablet Weaving Instruction Night. I don't need any more project obsessions in my life, thank you.
2) I wish I could sew, like rafaela can.
3) Forsooth.

Three things about my feet:
1) They still hurt. Contradancing barefoot is magnificent and a reason to go on living, but ye gods, does it do a number on your arches.
2) My toenails are purple and sparkly, thanks to zarhooie's tender ministrations. Thank you!
3) 12 hours on the gas pedal in three days makes my ankles sore. So worth it, though.

Simple way to I-787:
Go south on I-87, take 7 east, and take the I-787 exit.

Where WERE you going anyhow? And when are you bringing the little snotdarlings to the museum? :)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I've tuned my lesbian gaydar by means of the following diagnostic question: Do I think she's hot in the same way I thought Karen Larson was?

"2) My toenails are purple and sparkly"

At first I thought this was a continuation on the feet hurtin gcomment. Purple, and Sparkly! I think you should see a doctor.

three things about this post

[dicotomygrrl.livejournal.com]

1. I literally laughed out loud when I read your kids' reactions to HGG.
2. Is the fiddler at least Bi? Mmmmm....fiddlers....mmmm. Something about girls with stringed instruments rafaela included, MeRow.
3. Poor baby, sounds like you are in dire need of a foot rub! Too bad you guys live so far away or I'd volunteer.

What's a bouzouki and a shawm? I think I know what a bodhran is.

I have to say my education in many areas has been sadly neglected.
