I miss you so,
Seems like it’s been forever,
That you’ve been gone.
Where’d you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it’s been forever,
That you’ve been gone,
I have gotten a few emails asking where I have been.
I did not go anywhere.
I have been really busy getting ready for the SCA event coming up this weekend. I am usually busy getting ready for something or working on a project. So that is not any different then any other day.
Realistically the time that I might normally spend working on my blog or socializing online I have been spending with Sunshine.
Last week we went shopping and went out to lunch. I am hoping to see her again this week before I go on vacation. (Hint Hint)

I
I will be king
And you
You will be queen
Though nothing will
Drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
And you
You can be mean
And I
I’ll drink all the time
‘Cause we’re lovers
And that is a fact
Yes we’re lovers
And that is that
Though nothing
Will keep us together
We could steal time
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
For ever and ever
What d’you say
I
I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins
Like dolphins can swim
Though nothing
Will keep us together
We can beat them
For ever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes
Just for one day
I
I will be king
And you
You will be queen
Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be us
Just for one day
I
I can remember
Standing
By the wall
And the guns
Shot above our heads
And we kissed
As though nothing could fall
And the shame
Was on the other side
Oh we can beat them
For ever and ever
Then we can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
We’re nothing
And nothing will help us
Maybe we’re lying
Then you better not stay
But we could be safer
Just for one day 
I actually spent most of the day sewing. I made a Belly Dancing costume for my Step Daughter as well as a matching purse. Then I made a few red tunics and two Spartan Cloaks. Then I spent about 4 hours working on a dress made of black gauze. After a few ours of trying to get the neckline perfect I and I am actually embarrassed to admit this I went a little agro and tore the dress to shreds… I have enough fabric left to try it again tomorrow.
After then Olaf came over and we helped Rob move then played a little Rockband. My wife decided to go shopping with Brynna so here is a video of me Duncan and the guys. My singing is really bad however since no one else volunteered…
I used the Surger today, it is a great tool as long as the thread cooperates. It is a serious pain in the ass to re-thread it.

It has been a busy weekend, when yesterday finally ended it felt as though it should be Sunday or even Monday already. We all went to the West Crown Tournament here in Sacramento. This was my first time to go to this event so we day tripped it just to check it out. The event is small however it was nice and next time we will probably go to camp. The only fighting that occurs is the one on one tournament style fighting which is not really my thing. I enjoy the war fighting. I did capture a few videos of the tournament fighting and put them up on YouTube.
As for the rest of the weekend I will probably write more about it soon. It took a long time to load up the pictures and I have a bunch of stuff to get done today.

The link looks like a US based website so I doubt it will last very long. If you have not seen The Happening its a good movie. There is an advertisemtn that comes up when you first hit the site, you can click on skip the ad once it loads and enjoy the movie.

By an English professor from the University of Phoenix:
The professor told his class one day: “Today we will experiment with
a new form called the tandem story.
The process is simple. Each person will pair off with the person
sitting to his or her immediate right. As homework tonight, one of
you will write the first paragraph of a short story. You will email
your partner that paragraph and send another copy to me. The partner
will read the first paragraph and then add another paragraph to the
story and send it back sending another copy to me.
The first person will then add a third paragraph, and so on back-and-
forth. Remember to re-read what has been written each time in order
to keep the story coherent.
There is to be absolutely NO talking outside of the e-mail and
anything you wish to say must be written in the e-mail.
The story is over when both agree a conclusion has been reached.”
The following was actually turned in by two of his
English students:
Rebecca and Gary.
THE STORY:
(First paragraph by Rebecca)
At first, Laurie couldn’t decide which kind of tea
she wanted. The chamomile, which used to be her favourite for lazy
evenings at home, now reminded her too much of Carl, who once said, in
happier times, that he liked chamomile. But she felt she must now,
at all costs, keep her mind off Carl. His possessiveness was
suffocating, and if she thought about him too much her asthma started
acting up again. So, chamomile was out of the question.
(Second paragraph by Gary)
Meanwhile, Advance Sergeant Carl Harris, leader of
the attack squadron now in orbit over Skylon 4, had more
important things to think about than the neuroses of an air-headed
asthmatic bimbo named Laurie with whom he had spent one sweaty night
over a
year ago. “A.S. Harris to Geostation 17,” he said into
his transgalactic communicator. “Polar orbit established. No sign of
resistance so far…” But before he could sign off a bluish particle
beam flashed out of nowhere and blasted a hole through his ship’s
cargo bay. The jolt from the direct hit sent him flying out of his
seat
and across the cockpit.
(Rebecca)
He bumped his head and died almost immediately, but
not before he felt one last pang of regret for psychically
brutalizing the one woman who had ever had feelings for him. Soon
afterwards, Earth stopped its pointless hostilities towards the
peaceful farmers of Skylon 4.
“Congress Passes Law Permanently Abolishing War and Space Travel,”
Laurie read in her newspaper one morning.The news simultaneously
excited her and bored her. She stared
out the window, dreaming of her youth, when the days had passed
unhurriedly and carefree, with no newspaper to read, no television to
distract her from her sense of innocent wonder at all the
beautiful things aroundher. “Why must one lose one’s innocence to
become a woman?” she pondered wistfully.
(Gary)
Little did she know, but she had less than 10 seconds
to live.Thousands of miles above the city, the Anu’udrian
mothership launched the first of its lithium fusion missiles. The
dim-witted wimpy peaceniks that pushed the Unilateral Aerospace
Disarmament Treaty through the congress had left Earth a defenseless
target for the hostile alien empires that were determined to destroy
the human race.
Within two hours after the passage of the treaty, the
Anu’udrian ships were on course for Earth, carrying enough
firepower to pulverize the entire planet. With no one to stop
them, they swiftly initiated their diabolical plan. The lithium fusion
missile entered the atmosphere unimpeded. The President, in his
top-secret mobile submarine headquarters on the ocean floor off the
coast of Guam, felt the inconceivably massive explosion, which
vaporized
poor, stupid Laurie.
(Rebecca)
This is absurd. I refuse to continue this mockery of
literature. My writing partner is a violent, chauvinistic
semi-literate adolescent.
(Gary)
Yeah? Well, my writing partner is a self-centered
tedious neurotic whose attempts at writing are the literary equivalent
of Valium. “Oh, shall I have chamomile tea? Or shall I have someother
sort of
F–KING TEA??? Oh no, what am I to do? I’m such an
air headed bimbo who reads too many Danielle Steele novels!”
(Rebecca)
Asshole.
(Gary)
Bitch
(Rebecca)
F__K YOU - YOU NEANDERTHAL!
(Gary)
Go drink some tea - whore.
(TEACHER)
A+ - I really liked this one.

I finished the Ghawazee Coat tonight…all and all I am pretty happy with it. The liner got a little sloppy towards the end of the project however it is not something that is very visible.
The reality is that even if she only wears it once or twice I enjoyed making it. I got so much fabric the last time I went to JoAnns that I have about 15 more sewing projects lined up. If all I ever made were men’s Greek tunics I would never really get better at sewing simply because there is nothing to them. They take at most thirty minutes to make whereas this probably took at least ten hours to put together.
It comes back to the personality profile that I posted before, I have a constant need to accomplish something and this fills that need.
I have not been writing much lately. Perhaps I have gotten lazy by switching to making youtube videos. It is certainly easier to bust out the camera and talk for a minute then type… right?
I was not in the mood for that tonight so I am typing.
Sometimes I struggle with my blog. It started out solely as a journal. Being that it was a blog it was obviously something anyone could read. I was not really writing with that in mind and it was a month or two before anyone commented on my site or even visited it. At least not that anyone has admitted too… 
In fact I deleted many of the original posts that I wrote. I was going through some pretty intense emotions and a lot of confusion and I turned to blogging to sort them out and deal with them. It worked.
I am still here, I know that the intensity that drove my writing before has faded. In a lot of ways I feel like I am in purgatory. There are some big decisions that I have been putting off and in doing so I feel that I am not moving forward. I fear that the more I wait the fewer options I may have, perhaps deep down I am hoping that some new options may present themselves. Perhaps a door will appear that I did not see before. Maybe things are just not that simple…
I am not one to rush decisions when I do not have to and due to that I have not. The problem is that some things sort themselves out. Which really means that if you hesitate for too long others will sort them out for you.
Its time for me to go to bed, since my wife’s out of town that means I have to drag my ass out of bed and get my own coffee in the morning… unless there are any volunteers? I do not ask for much but a nice warm cup of coffee waiting for me by the side of the bed when I wake up goes a long way.

Since I hit 5000 hits I figured I may as well take a moment and reflect on my blog and say thanks to those that have visited it and kept this fun.
