Cmysticali: May 2013
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 5, 2013. It was a relatively unpleasant, hot and windy day followed by a very pleasant, temperate and calm evening. Court was highly entertaining. And this is where my head is at currently. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. MOVE ON.

Cmysticali: July 2013
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 14, 2013. The Investiture went great! It's amazing what you miss when you're waiting to process in. I had to run up and listen outside the door while Miach was swearing his Oath. I totally missed Uther's introduction of Miach, which evidently was awesome. I missed Geoffrey of Clan Fergus' poem. The garb was great, and everyone pulled together for Investiture so very well. We DID wear woad! Arnold decided he wants to join the SCA, and he came out this morning wanting to shoot archery. Tomorro...

Cmysticali: June 2013
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 17, 2013. The Run-through Father's Day Potluck in the Park. It was great to talk with people and hang out, a real bonding experience for the Court and Artisans. Bjorni and Finna came, Their Highnesses of Cynagua came. It was just lovely, sitting under a giant walnut tree, rehearsing in a shady, relatively remote arbor in Rusch Park. Links to this post. Saturday, June 8, 2013. The Hats. I Cannot Freaking Believe It. So, Miach won May Coronet. And I've been meaning to blog it. Miach cried, man...

Cmysticali: Tuesday
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013/07/tuesday.html
Tuesday, July 9, 2013. 3 more days to Investiture. We ran through the ceremony several times last night, just the two of us, the dogs and Norman the parakeet. I am having a real hard time remembering the funky verbiage. It doesn't flow. Tonight, it will be baked beans and pork, some protein drink, and sewing pearls on Miach's fabric belt. We also have been debriding necrotic tissue out of a bad joint wound that T.Rex Rooster sustained, and then re-dressing the wound, the past two days. Game On, Noobs!

Cmysticali: Great Western War and this time I HAVE THE HAT
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013/10/great-western-war-and-this-time-i-have.html
Wednesday, October 16, 2013. Great Western War and this time I HAVE THE HAT. Two of the big October events are now behind us: Crown, and Great Western War. I had a very good time at War, as usual was a Bad Princess and didn't bring my parasol onto the field. By the end of War, Newt was holding his Mongol hat over me for shade. We went to the Royal Reception and passed out and received gifts. We processed into Court (that's the picture above) but we just walked through and didn't stay. We hosted t...Miach...

Cmysticali: February 2013
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 23, 2013. The Fermented Cabbages Part Two. When I went out to the back deck to dig around in my fermentation box. Links to this post. Monday, February 11, 2013. A Tale of Two Fermented Cabbages. I added 2 or 3 tablespoons of rice flour to about a cup of water and cooked it over a low flame until it thickened, then scooped it into a bowl to cool. Then, I sliced up another 20 or so radishes and three bunches of green onions including the tops and set that aside. You can also add other ve...

Cmysticali: April 2013
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 29, 2013. GB: I've got this covered. I've done just about everything now that I could do: several restaurant meals, a trip to Florida, wedding reception, birthdays and ethnic foods. I've tolerated very small amounts of cakes of all kinds, pasta and rice. But I've taken to heart the warning to put good stuff in my pouch first, and foremost. I thought about posting weights, but I kind of go back to an earlier post about it: I had an operation. If I DON'T lose weight, that's remarkable....

Cmysticali: One week to go to Investiture
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013/07/one-week-to-go-to-investiture.html
Friday, July 5, 2013. One week to go to Investiture. I'm starting to have trouble sleeping. The Investiture garb project hit a huge snag when Miach's tunic arrived and was too tight. Miach didn't want me to tell our artisan/tailor, he just wanted to have someone local fix it. However, I felt that would be very disrespectful, as I know that our tailor put all her energy and time into this and it was her creation. I wanted her to basically give us her blessing. We already had potential for emotional trauma...

Cmysticali: Almost at The Halfway Point
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2013/09/almost-at-halfway-point.html
Saturday, September 28, 2013. Almost at The Halfway Point. We've been kind of busy, and I haven't been able to chronicle Our Reign as often as I would have liked. I'm feeling good now.really good. Physically and spiritually. But that wasn't true a couple weeks ago. A couple weeks ago, I LOST IT. And here's why:. My Guard is largely absent from events. The same two or three gentlepeople seem to be doing ALL the work. All of the above coalesced to form a perfect storm of paranoia and doubt. In fact, our ex...

Cmysticali: August 2011
http://cmysticali.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Is this the Real Life? Is this just Fantasy? This is my home for several weekends, and some weeks, every year. It happens to be located in this picture in Woodland, California. But it has been seen near Bakersfield, near Gilroy, near Quincy, near San Francisco; in Arizona and in Oregon. Will echo from all quarters of the Village. "Long live the King" is followed by "Long live the Queen", and we always give 3 cheers (usually "Huzzah! As in many other communities, 10% of the group...
