Man, oh man, I have been LAGGING on my updates! I have been so crazy busy with one thing primarily: ELECTIVE SURGERY!!! For those who don't know, it's San Diego's Repo! the Genetic Opera shadowcast. We've been prepping for our first show and I've been busting missions at least once a week for practices. I've been sleep deprived a lot but the end result has shown all the blood, sweat and tears we've put into this show! We've become quite the little family, I really love how we've all bonded! ^.^ My little San Diego family!

First things first, let's rewind this ship of Today to the lumber of Yesterday...

Renaissance Fair 2010-April 24th

The wife and I made our way to Irwindale to "big fair" as the kids say. Every year, Santa Fe Dam turns into geek central for a good month and a half. I live 5 minutes away so it's kind of awesome! I went this year in tribal suit as I did last year, in my favourite colors red & black! Michael went in a nice green outfit that looked quite painful to wear but he looked great! We met up our friends Rebecca and Joseph there, we had a great day of running into people, seeing everyone's costumes and enjoying the actors, dancers and other entertainment. I really enjoyed the inventor's guild walking around, the belly dancers and, of course, the joust! Our guy didn't win but it was a fine show indeed! I got my hand kissed by a Spaniard who said he loved my colors and took lots of pictures! At the end of the day, a strange lady kissed the boys (making them her 72nd & 73rd kiss of the day!) and we were quite hot! It was a great day, I always have fun at fair!

My outfit for the day! I regretted wearing the leggings under it :S


My hair and make up & tattoo ;)
