About Me
I'm a ten year long member of the SCA and a six year long Ren Faire workee, starting with the small northern faires of California (teaching archery) and most of the 07 summer season on the Colorado/Wisconsin/Kansas route with Nativearth.
I enjoy entertaining, street performance, stage acting, dancing, etc. I love trees, gardening, camping, rock hunting, and digging in dirt in general brings me happy thoughts. I do always save the worms though.
Music
The Dresden Dolls, Veruca Salt, Fall Of Troy, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Portishead, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam, Rasputina, HUMANWINE, Gogol Bardello, DeVotchKa..etc.
Movies
The Craft, Matilda, Much Ado About Nothing, Hook, Alice, and too many more.
TV
Star Trek (all except Enterprise), Good Neighbors, Firefly, Poirot, Millennium, Buffy, Angel, Fullhouse, Family Guy, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Southpark..I don't have cable, DVDs are my life.
Books
Peter Pan, Catspaw, Sabriel & Lariel, Ragwitch, Poison Study & Magic Study (Fire Study out in 08 YAYY), Harry Potter-all, and bunches of others that have to do with other worlds, strange creatures, etc.
Likes
Listening to rain, drawing, painting, spinning, dancing, heavies, swimming (especially when you look up and the sun is hitting the water..it's the most beautiful thing...), astrology, photography, cinematography, writing, walking, my dog Frigga, cuddling, watching movies, etc etc...
Dislikes
Hatred, negativity in general, when movies get crappy (like now), egocentricity, lies, patronizers, snobs, curse words being used in every sentence, most slang, rude drivers, flipping the bird, ass kissing, slavery, most american sitcoms/reality shows, being in Florida too long, staying in one place too long in general, fights, and anything else that disrupts my peaceful bubble. I don't mind a good debate once and again, don't find me to be a bore now. Wit is key to a peaceful existence, as is tolerance and problem solving skills.
Hobbies
Most of my likes are also my hobbies, along with the bass guitar and RPGs.
I never thought I'd end up in So. California. I love the mountains, I hate the city, so who woulda thunk? Oh well, I guess I should enjoy it while I'm here.
Today is Fighter practice, finally, we haven't practiced in two weeks, and my pell broke, so I'm a bit rusty. I still don't have armor, so that sucks, I need a helm bad.
I got plane tickets to Boston, where I'm going late December for a concert. Not just any concert, my favorite band The Dresden Dolls is doing a final winter tour before their break. Of course they decided not to go where it wont be FREEZING. That's alright, I've got friends in Boston/RI area and family for that matter. My sister's taking me in for a few days, I was shocked when she offered to pick me up from the airport. I love my sister, but let's just say she's normal, and well, I'm a nerd. She's also 14 years older then me and I don't think she's ever quite gotten me. But I don't really understand her either. I'm glad she's taking me in though, I love to see my nephew. He's four now, turning five in july, that just blows my mind. I remember when he was an ity bity baby. I'll get to see my best buds, John and Amanda. Not Jill unfortunately, she's doing the hippie bum thing across the country. Been there done that, probably will do it again. But John is happy to have me stay at his house, so that's awesome. Amanda's gunna drive me around, because she can now, and we'll probably hop around the mall poor and content like we used to. I'll also get to see Casey, who's letting me stay with her in Boston, YAyy. I'm so happy about this trip.
More recently I'll be going to Florida, see my dad, wohpie. But I will see my eldest nephews, and all the bits of my family I like as well. It'll be warmer there then boston, I'm looking up for that.
I'm back home after my first time on the road, well for ren faires anyhow. The season was cut short for me, but it's best, school's calling. Not exactly, I'm a bit off on sign up time for the ol' college roo.
I wonder if I'll find the man named Jason who referred me to this site at the Bristol Faire...
Ello love, i've just realized you've been my friend for a while and we haven't been properly introduced, which now seems irrelevant seeing that all your info is posted, but aside from that it is lovely to meet you and you may call me Nicholas Young (aka Cody)
