ladydoujiSo yesterday my friends Misty and Nikki headed up to Renfest for Misty's birthday. For some crazy reason I forgot my typical route of going on 249 through Tomball and followed their guide of I-45 though Conroe. Drove me nuts as I kept feeling I've gone too far and it wasn't the correct route. But we eventually made it. I led us to the Imaginarium Galleries because I wanted to buy a saddle for my large dragon and got a Dragon egg for Misty's birthday present. Once we got in Misty and I started a quest for food. I opted for fruit to start. I was dressed my Jiva's Original bellydance/fairy outfit, and my dyed bangs have recently faded with washing, but not evenly so I have a pretty nice graduate fade from a dark blue to purple, which matched my outfit. So while I was in line to get my fruit another fairgoer(also dressed in garb) acting perfectly in character asked if I was a fairy. Which then prompted a purchase of fairywings for me(as there's nothing sadder then a fairy who has lost her wings)
Misty however had us on an epic quest for funnel cake, interrupted by a small sidequest for pretty leather hairwraps(and me peeling off a few layers of silk as they were getting way too warm) and Nikki's quest for a bathroom. But we located the funnel cake and bathroom(by which time I was ready for something more substantial than fruit and had a yummy beef empanada) Inside the restroom there was some rather disturbing graffiti on my stall door. Some-one had written "kiss here if you <3 Severus Snape" And the door was covered in lipstick kiss marks. Then had my own epic quest for booze, which was easily accomplished(it's renfest there's booze everywhere) We leveled up and continued exploring, albeit a bit more randomly. I got my annual necklace from Crystal mountain and my hair braided. I couldn't decide what style to get so I finally went "here's some money and do what thou wilst" The result was two lace braids coiled up into a bun with a tiny accent braid. The braiders were also itching to get their hands into Nikki's thigh-length hair, but she had to decline due to limited funds.
We failed at shooting bow and arrows with only Nikki managing to hit a star. And Misty than began her other epic quest of finding Centaur Porn. Searching out one specific pewter work shop that she couldn't remember the name of, but that had figurines of various mythological creatures having sex. SO once again we roamed the wilds of the fair, getting distracted by various shinies(my main distractions a silver loop necklace, a tessan, and another silk outfit in white and red that Nikki and I dubbed "the white mage bellydance set) and taking break to sooth our aching feet. During one such stop a little girl approched Nikki eyes wide in awe and adoration. "Your hair is soo long and pretty" she than noticed my blue hair "You have blue hair. It's beautiful" She was completely adorable and quite proud of her own long hair.
Misty eventually found her centaur porn, and we're hoping that between the three of us grabbing a business card we'll be able to find the store's website and them again. I decided I wanted to get a dragon egg as IG myself as it's becoming something of a tradition of mine. So off we went and I got a 10$ egg, won a 20$ dragon who makes my dragon horde up to 7(I seriously need to get a shelf or something to display these guys on)
We ended the day with Misty and I getting foot massages so out feet were no longer flaming balls of pain and fire. I was so relaxed I was almost falling asleep in the massage chair(ok the general exaustion from the day probably wasn't helping) After the fireworks and the close of the fair we headed out to the car, stopping only to enjoy the bagpipe performers and grab a cd.
We stopped at Denny's for dinner and talked. I took a wrong turn when we left Denny's to head up and we ended up in Brenham before we got turned around and headed in the right direction. We finally made it home to Houston, I dropped Misty and Nikki off. I took a shower and collapsed into my ultra soft Bed of Awesome.
There are plans to go again on the last day of the faire which is the The Sunday after Thanksgiving.
