Moresca Ball

Everyone looked great.  Food was awesome.  Games were fun.  I had a blast.  I also learned new sides to everyone and became confused as all my preconceptions and perspectives on some folks have now changed.

i had such a fun time at this ball. it was my first trip to moresca as well as a masked ball.

i started off the night with a bang when tobar and i forgot to bow to the count! LOL apparently this was a trend starting with Magnus and it caught on like fire.

i had a fun time finding out some key information and FINALLY meeting the yahtzis.

wanting to dance all night but then having tobar run off to gamble every time they started up the dancing.then having collin ask me why a beautiful woman like myself wasn't dancing and having Cael hear this and randomly run screaming and chastising tobar (at the gambling table mind you) about how he should dance with his date and not think with his coin purse.

rping with the yahtzis, carlos, magdelena and tobar about the "Kwildar Project." LMAO loads of fun.

the food was absolutely incredible and i'm glad my "gypsy cake" was a big hitch. I hope those of you who got to have some enjoyed it greatly.

coming to the conclusion with tobar that Emar is "full of s***" and that's why there was so much corn in Tobar's chowder/soup thing lmao.

judging the poetry contest was fun. Wally just walked up and said "are you in the contest? you doing anything? you wanna judge it? good stay right there!" lol it was a blast.

having tobar serenade me in the singing contest and trying to be supportive as zach kept hiccuping through the song. for some strange reason he got stage fright... strange... who would have thought!

watching Tobias dance with Kathara (sp?).

having tobar teach me how to tango while i was pretty drunk was hilarious and then he started dancing kwildar around... i couldn't contain my laughter.

Tobar is officially the Rainbow Jingle Ranger... and Carlos is Sailor Magellan! that conversation was wrong in sooooo many nerdy ways but hilarious none the less!

i'm sure there is much more but i'm so tired from only getting 6 hours of sleep from the ball and driving that i can't remember. i'll post later if i remember them.

Finally getting a chance to just BE there again.

Running the dancing--you were all fabulous, and for as much as you all protest, there is not one unteachable dancer among you (even James kept up)

RP with many--you know who you are.

Seeing all my ladies again - love all you girls.

Seeing everyone else too.

Cheese souffle and empanadas.  I could probably live off those two items.

Teaching.

Convincing Cecil Elawyn wasn't dead, and the implications thereof.

Erdrick's late entrance to the phantom of the opera theme, with hood pulled over his head and everything - Sam didn't even realize it.

And then not so much a highlight, having my first plane be so late last night getting to Atlanta that I missed my connection and had to sleep in a hotel for the night waiting for the next flight to Tallahassee this morning. 

I just want to say thank you to everyone for helping to make the ball a success!

Thanks to Jen W. for hosting the dancing part of the ball. A masquerade ball, just would not be a masquerade ball without the ballroom dancing!

Thanks to everyone who brought food in any form!

Thanks to Joe and MB for all their help with setup, clean-up, costume making, and everything else they helped with!

A HUGE thanks to Aaron, and Alex T. who worked like crazy to make the plot and the entertainment of the ball enjoyable for you all!

Thanks to Paul Y, Roy, Matt, Charna, and everyone else who stayed to help clean up the hall!

I probably forgot some names, but in short, these events are so successful in no small part by the great contributions from all of you!

And one of my highlights was getting to see Kristen, and Jen W. !

The interplay between the Master of Games and the Suicide King (and their lackeys) was indeed priceless. Hats off to a great performance

And I have to say the amount of "stuff" going on was just fantastic.
