I have Survived!! O.o
*small flail of Muppet Goodness whilst taking sip of her Monster O Doom*
Talk about insanity at it's best. *chuckles'n'shakes her head*
So this is the crazyness of this Past weekend in a Nutshell...
Friday was Kid's Day... I was under the impression it would be about 500 Kids or so, being brought by Bus o Doom to Faire for the day. Heh...ya, I wish. It was actually Over 8,500 Kids.
Try and wrap your squishy brainmeats around that Number for a second.
8,500 Hormonally Challenged Spawnlings. That's Eight Thousand Five Hundred. And we didn't have barely Half of our usual Participants working the Faire.
We were Surrounded O.O
But thankfully, the Teeny-Boppers were actually pretty good. Nuthin' too crazy happened. And it was from 8am til 3pm. I think the Most Exhausting part about that day, was every one of us who Did Volunteer to Entertain the Spawnlings, all of us, had to Edit ourselves. Usually we can be a bunch of Cheeky Munkees, but in front of the Kids, we had to basically be 'Disney Friendly'...
So on Saturday, Everyone cut loose and we were All thankful for the outlet lol
And after Kid's Day of Doom, Saturday and Sunday was our First 'Time Traveler' Weekend. Man... It was a Blast! We had a bunch of epic Steam Punk, Several Doctor Who, even a few wandering Tardis (those made me giggle) and the best of all?
Two Storm Troopers, with Capes, Came to our Joust...and Supported our Evil Knight. So I had an absolute Field Day Welcoming Patrons as they came to sit in my section announcing proudly, "Welcome to the Dark Side! We Have Storm Troopers!" and they'd look at me confuzzled to which I would add, "No, seriously, they're just across the way." and I'd point them out lol
Having them there, and having such an Awesome Audience, we All had a total blast. Even our small Band/Minstrels/Orchestra that surrounds the Queen during the joust, started playing Star Wars when the Knights began to Joust. It. Was. EPIC!
On the way back from Joust, The Rabble Rousers (Myself included) Personally Escorted the Two Storm Troopers through Faire so they could rest and get hydrated at the FOF Garden. I took lead, and used my Staff to basically Ward people off so we could get them there without them being constantly stopped for Pictures (They really needed to cool off). And now I can Honestly say, I've Guarded Storm Troopers to Safety LOL
*giggles'n'snorts*
Oh and I happened to run across a well put together Jack Sparrow on Saturday... Of course, I did the appropriate thing by sauntering up to him, and went in to Full Jack Sparrow Character. I think his brain shorted out for a few seconds, because a Woman, Not Dressed as a Pirate, just walked up to him, opened her mouth and suddenly Morphed into a Female Johnny Depp XD
It was hysterical. He tried to keep up, and I commend him for the effort, but apparently from what the other Rabble Rousers Witnessed, I completely out Sparrowed him LOL
And let me just say... I cannot Wait for Next Weekend. Pirate Weekend, April 27th-28th, I will be in True Onyx Attire. And I plan to Fully Ham it up ^_^ I do hope I run across more Jack Sparrows... I love to see their reaction at my Spot on Impression :P
*chuckles'n'shakes her head*
Alright, it is now 1:34pm and I have to start gettin' ready for work. It's not too long of a day, nice and groovy, which I definitely appreciate lol
So I will bid muh luvlies anon and hopefully have more to ramble on about later when muh brain is functioning a little better :P
*waves*
-Adieu
Huzzah to her mightiness...the onyx o doome...and her magic sparrow...and wondrous ***huggles***
