Gulf War Recap (sorta)

[countessmouse]

Okay, we've been home a week and I'm just now getting around to posting about Gulf War. My excuse? I came home to not one, but two transaction closings and it was a rough week.

So, back to Gulf War. We went, our schedules were insane, our entourage took very good care of us (love you guys!), there was no time for shopping so excursions into the merchant area resembled hunting expeditions, the stress killed my appetite and I lost a few pounds, and I managed not to wear every single piece of garb I brought with me. It stopped raining Monday evening and the weather was gorgeous the rest of the week. I got to meet kass_rants, deafelis, and soldiergrrl in person. I got to hang out with alethea_eastrid a lot. I enjoyed meeting the other Royals. The Ansteorran Roses Tournament was lovely. And my Rapier Army kicked ass.

Out of the couple of thousand pictures taken that I've been sent links to, this is one of my favorites:



Five events and two peerage circles until Step Down/Coronation. I am sooo ready to be a peon again.

I hate that picture. I look like a pregnant wookie in a mumu.

That's a good pic! Robert's head is looming over you in an almost Mufasa-type manner, though!

you may no longer be Queen, but you'll never be a peon. :)
