Spent most of Saturday at the vintage clothing show, which was really amazing. I expected to be bored, but in fact found it most interesting. Kathryn and Beth both made purchases, but I didn't...because by fashion standards I am a cow. (Though as my waist continues shrinking, I'm rediscovering the problem I had in high school--that my _breasts_ don't fit into anything even if my waist and/or hips do.)
( Sizing rant, again )
Then came home and watched Aliens, in preparation for the morrow's exercises.
Sunday: Paintball! Boy howdy. Only half of the people we'd gotten commits from actually showed, so we didn't get our own field; but for the most part this turned out okay, and much fun was had by all.
( Post-game recap )
So I'm tired and bruised today all over--one tends to get a welt wherever a ball hit, especially if it didn't break, and I have bruises around most of my welts--but very glad I went, and intending to go again.
Today has been crazy-mad frustrating and busy, but since the morning I have had a lovely aikido class and am now settled down with an excellent salad, so all is happy again.
