34? I roll my eyes forever at you, little chickabiddy.

I'm 34, too--will be 35 in January--and I'm planning to take up reenacting as soon as I can afford to do so. I'm amazed I didn't fall into it years earlier, given my particular flavor of geekdom, but I don't intend to let age deter me.

When we get back to Michigan, I'm gonna do the Civil War reenactments, too. But mostly cause I like the dressing up part.

Definitely a huge plus for the whole deal. Thankfully no hoopskirts in 1582.

I love hoopskirts. Love love love em. If I wasn't such a conformist and trendy like, I'd wear em everyday.

Just ran into ALP. She was wearing the fugliest boots!

I'm still going to hell.

You should hang with Jilli more. Start your own trend, while following a master.

Were it option....

Actually, I have this fantasy. Having Jilli dress me like her, and me dressing Jilli like me.

I am so strange.

If I do Civil War reenacting, I suspect I'll stick to a "girl who ran off to join the army disguised as a boy" persona, since I'm not that into hoopskirts. But for Revolutionary War and Peninsular/1812, I'll need a male identity to play with the guns and a girly one to play with the pretty clothes.

Ooh, Civil War reenacting. Something I've wanted to do for a while, but never had the time. It's not as if I don't live in the right area for it....

Random thought (completely related to absolutely nothing being discussed): I forgot to ask for the Buffista six-pence for the wedding. Huh. I guess it works long-distance, too.

The Buffista sixpence is no more. But the love is still there!
