Monday, the start of a new week full of endless possibilities... who knows what adventure starts this week?
Excuse me for being so cheery on the, usually, most dreaded day of the week, but I had a good weekend and a great start of the day so I will at least be grinning till evening.
The fantasy fair was awesome, we had superb weather and even though some of the things I wanted to buy weren't there this year, I did manage to spend quite a bit of money. Though Jasmine and I are still arguing who bought what, I outspent her yet again (not even counting my new leather pants)
My haul (though subject are liable to change and open to debate of who actually "committed" the purchase)
- Dark Angels Tarot (if you're into Tarot, this one is gorgeous)
- Gustav Klimt Tarot
- 2 Tod McFairlanes Dragon figurines
- Twilight the graphic novel (hardcover)
- Pure fantasy 18+ (Dutch fantasy writers and illustrators created a one time 18+ edition) signed by artists
- Exclusive T-shirt with a print of one of the same artist as mentioned above.
- A necklace with a large dragon pendant, who's tail is actually a small knife.
- Reiki DVD, a Dutch and Belgian independent fantasy movie, signed by the director
- Star Wars Clone wars DVD (which I actually didn’t have yet, the shame)
I'll leave the rest to my beloved Jasmine.
Jasmine looked stunning and it was extremely difficult to keep my eyes of her.... most of the male and some of the female visitors were having similar problem. Many of them were particularly having issues with finding her eyes, most were searching for them about 30 to 40 centimeters too low.

Only three downers on the whole day:
- I completely ruined my feet and still have trouble walking, I should have brought my cane or even my crutch but I hate to have to carry it around when I so rarely need it.
- I was going to buy a nerf foam dart gun (Vulcan, the biggest they have) to mod, paint and pimp it to look like a Halo weapon (yes nerdy, childish, whatever, I think it's fun) but the company who is there every year to sell them wasn't there this year.
- My regular supplier of mead, especially wild roses mead, wasn't there anymore either. I was hoping to refill my yearly supply, now I have to wait till august.
Work today is getting a bit tedious, but for now my good mood is still strong enough to pull me through the day. Though this week, young as it is already counts several work-related "face-palm" moments.
That's it for now, maybe more later today...
May the moon light your path,
Sidney
