I don't think the renaissance fair is the venue for my work, but I'd like to go just for the fun of it and especially to ogle the studly fellas jousting!
I have a German friend who is totally into the whole reenactment stuff and her husband is a sword fighter and it's all a little silly and weird (especially when she tells me about being a hand maiden to the queen and having to do all this crazy stuff for her mistress) but she seems to really love it and have a great time.
She told me she was friends with a real Baron who is a single guy (lives in Bavaria somewhere) and he's also a jewelry maker--I told her to set me up! Oh, get this, he also lives in a castle AND she says he's very handsome. Hey, a girl can dream can't she?
