This past weekend ursule and I went to Lionhearts, which was down in Orting, WA (a bit east of Tacoma). I love the site we use down there... it's bounded on two sides by a river and has tons of trees, it's lovely. We spent most of the weekend just relaxing and hanging out. ursule taught a couple of classes, I filed out a couple more punches for my coin minting (though I still need to do a bit of finishing and harden them). I also stepped up as seneschal of The College of Saint Bunstable, which basically makes me the club president of the SCA at UW.

Monday night we had dinner with my parents, who just returned from vacation in Italy and Scotland. They brought us all sorts of cool stuff, including a new scotch tasting glass and a couple little bottles of scotch that I've never tried before. Neat!

My moped calls to me on these beautiful days, but it is not yet healed from the seize. I have ridden it a bit after upjetting, but it runs like shit due to all the air leaks. Patience. Once the new parts are in it will be reborn, and I will tear through the streets with fire at my heels.

One more thing...

Last night I racked my latest beer to the secondary, and started the dry hopping. Oh man, this is one hoppy beer. Apparently last night it got a bit excited and erupted through the fermentation lock, spilling beer all over the floor in our closet (which is fortunately linoleum and easy to clean up). So yeah, yay beer.

(no subject)

Wohoo, I got my carb and filter today. Shiny! And it cost less than expected which is always nice on my student budget.

I should be all set for the Seattle Moped Rally, though alas I will be missing much of the action.
