Fight School was created about 7 years ago... when Carolyn wanted Jim and Geoff to put together an educational fight show that showcased the weapons of the time period and demonstrations of their use. Jim and Geoff, however, decided that if they were going to do a show like that, then they might want a couple more people in the show, so they asked Mikey and I if we were interested.

Me being the "Fight Slut" that I am... leaped at the opportunity to do a Fight Show at Fest.

The first year we performed... the show was EXTREMELY educational... but didn't hold the interest of MANY people. It was a poorly attended show. So we would start cutting up on one another... and the playfulness that we have backstage spilled onto the stage and slowly the show became what it is today. We still get the info out there... but we use comedy to deliver it.

(Fair Maid was AWESOME!) and only 3?

Why don't you cut your hair?

Because as a teen and early adult, i got tired of having to waste time washing it every day. when its short, i wake up with horrid bed-head and so it *has* to be washed just to assume anything remotely approaching respectable shape (and no, i'm not shaving it all off - my dad wears a crew cut now and i hate it).

so now its long enough to pull back and i can just go "yank" and be able to walk out the door after a 2 minute shower instead of being forced to have a 10 minute one every day whether i want to waste that much time or not. i'm not of the "wear a hat when its awful" type. i wear a hat for either fashion or 'cause it's cold outside (or hot and i need the sunshade).

i do get it trimmed twice a year, sometimes taking off several inches.

OK, that's totally counterintuitive. I would have thought longer meant higher-maintenance.

It's very impressive anyway.

1. I met you at a martini night and thought you were incredibly cool.
2. Monopoly
3. You always seem to be smiling, especially when you're laying the smackdown.
4. Late-night chat on ptpgrad's comfy couch.
5. How is it that I never see you at Faire?
6. sleeping martini (I think that's more or less how you looked when I first met you...rather, a few hours after I first met you...I'm not making this any better, am I?)

With all the sofa references, it's almost like we've slept together... I mean, at the same place? Or ... erm, yes! I see your connundrum. *g*

And THANK you for thinking I'm "cool". I think you're pretty neat, myself!

Sadly, I was at faire less frequently this past season. I'm not sure how we could possibly not bump into one another with ~20,000 people passing through the gates each day. Hee! However, if you wanted to find me, I have a suggestion. If I can't be found on the street, try going to any of a variety of drinking establishments... and don't forget to look down when scanning the crowd. (Actually, I tend to prefer to be sitting *just* outside, in the periphery.)
