Yep, I'm having a yard sale. Some of it will be SCA appropriate, some won't, but come help me clean out my house and find yourself some new treasures.

I know all of you will appreciate this, whether it's in it's fabric, or book incarnation......

"I'm buying this fabric/book now in case I have an emergency...you
know, having to suddenly make presents for everyone, sickness, flood, injury, mosquito infestations, not enough silk in the house, it's Friday..." ;)

So, today started out well, and was actually quite pleasant until about 4 pm, when Evaria, one of her friends, and I were happily shopping at the Urban Gourmet, a friendly kitchen gadget store about 2 blocks from the house. Suddenly some asshat decided to rob the place, and all of us, at knifepoint. We're all more or less ok, and we actually got our purses back (they got dumped in the Nordstrom parking lot at the mall), but of course all the cash, credit cards and ID were missing. Gwen's brand new I-phone was also taken; her friend and I benefitted from being space cadets and leaving our phones at home today. One of the shop owners helped us break into the house so I could get my phone and start calling people/banks/creditcompanies, and I did get my keys back, but the rest of the day was spent talking to the police, retrieving purses from Nordstrom security, talking to the police again, and then finally getting Gwalchgwyn and Ziggy some food. Evaria and I couldn't even get a drink at Red Robin because we didn't have any I.D., although Gwalchgwyn was nice and ordered a double G&T and then switched glasses with me.

I'm out almost $200 I can't afford to lose right now, but thank all the gods I got to the bank and credit card companies before they used any of those. I need to replace my I.D. and I now need a new wallet and card case because the M***** F****** A****** took my celtic knotwork tooled green leather card case. I probably won't find another one of those. I'm also very thankful I took my plane tickets and passport out of my purse yesterday.

I'm also having a very bad reaction to the adrenalin drop. I've noticed that since the accident and fibro, it's almost like I'm allergic to my own adrenalin. Right now I'm having muscle spasms and extreme brain fog. I also banged up my knee pretty good, but I'll wait until tomorrow to decide if I need to have that seen to.
