anonymousblueberryI seem to title too many posts variations of "oww". Oh well.
Weekend just gone was amazing. It was also wet and horrible and muddy, but mostly just amazing. I fought in some excellent battles and then by the end of the weekend had agreed to become my group's priest, so a complete change next event.
It might be for the best. I've got interesting shaped sunburn across my shoulders from wearing armour which is actually really fucking painful, just wearing a soft t-shirt. I've got steri-strips holding a chunk of my knee in place after I slipped in the rain and then didn't realise I was bleeding until I was halfway through getting armour on, and then most of Saturday and all of yesterday was spent walking round a swamp after torrential rain. I've ruined one pair of shoes and lost another, and my feet were caked in mud (I eventually gave up on shoes for everything but arena fighting, as it was actually safer walking barefoot). My bad ankle has swollen up and I can't move three of the toes on that foot properly (and they weren't even the toes that got trodden on).
My group are amazing and despite my usual round of "oh god oh god people" I had a really great time. Especially the several hours I spent (sober) in the bar, talking to random people and avoiding the rain.
Anyway, I still stink of woodsmoke, I really want a bath but the shower is dripping and I'm waiting for a plumber to show up. I need to post some ebay packages and I have an all day training course tomorrow on how to do my job. Joy.
I've also run out of teabags. Bugger. Oh well, I suppose this means I have to go out in the rain.
