Mk, so this little faery has a way to the festival and she's wondering if anyone else is in need of a ride?
Details:
I'll be leaving for the festival July 31st and starting my trek back home August 4th. I'm coming from San Ramon California ( 45 minutes south east of San Francisco), so if you're on the way, I'll make a pit stop and pick you up, or you could meet me half way. Either option works for me :)
Gas prices being what they are, I do ask that you donate $82 to the gas fund. I've done the math, and it's pretty much I buy a tank, you buy a tank, which I think is fair enough.
If anyone is interested, leave me a comment or to talk things out with me, my e-mail is shirefairy@sbcglobal.net.
I'M A VOLUNTEER AT THE FAERIEWORLD FESTIVAL!! I get to work four hours a day for two days at the merchandise booth right next to the main stage. The person who was going to work there cancelled, so it seems I was next in line for the opportunity. YAAAAaaaaaaeeeeeeeeesssss!
The only thing I have to worry about now is transportation...I mean, I can drive, but I'm trying to think of the cheapest way up there that won't kill my car. My car is about eleven years old and still has to make the trip out to Denver in a couple of weeks. We will see...
I was a girl scout for most of my life, so I have a knack for resourcefulness :)
At the moment, I'm trying to figure out how it is that I am getting
myself to the Faeryworld festival in Eugene Oregon, August 1-3 and
there are a ton of thoughts buzzing through my head. At first, I
thought I was driving by myself, but then I realized that I will have
just had three teeth yanked, so that might not be the best of ideas.
Then I was trying to figure out what would happen if I took a bus and
went from there? The issue is, once I get there...how do I get around?
I mean, I've never been to Oregon so I know nothing of the terrain.
Then my friend
inspired me with what she's doing for Comicon this year. She's
volunteering and that made me think...if she can do that and not have
to worry about tickets selling out and the like, why can't I do that
for the Faery festival? I will be perfectly happy picking up trash all
three days just as long as I'm there, in the atmosphere and around
people of like mind. People who actually believe in faeries and won't
judge me for being the way I have chosen to form myself. Don't get me
wrong, my friends are already like that for me, but I'd just like to
meet others of like mind...you know? I've been feeling a little
disconnected from everything lately, so maybe this will help me a bit.
UGH! I just really, really, really, REALLY want to make it to this festival!!
It is a blistering 109 degrees in my home right now. Blech...
I'm just sitting on my couch ( trying to keep cool ) and all of a sudden, I feel this huge urge to find Irish people. I know it sounds really weird, but there are times when I just wish I could chat with someone from Ireland. Why? I've been obsessed with Ireland since I was very small, I love the color green, all the Irish people I've met are amazing, I just love Ireland, to list a few reasons. Not to mention the fact that I get the feeling I've been Irish in multiple past lives...and all of those past lives seem to be going " Ugh, WOMAN! We're home sick, go find Irish people!!...NOW."
*sigh* See, this is why I make an effort to not post things when I'm really, really hot. I become extremely random...and weird. Really, really weird.
I'm in a really, really good mood today and I have no idea why, but I felt the need to share some of my, uh...faery spirit with people who I know would appreciate it :D
I think part of the reason I'm so happy comes from the fact that I love my daily drawing prompt for today. Not too long ago, I joined a Daily Drawing Prompt group on yahoo! to help me practice and improve my drawing abilities and today's prompt is: Draw a fairy.
Yay! Golden sunbeams of happiness and joy to everyone! :D
