Earnest Mooting

[primsong]

We're off to church shortly - then to Portland for "The Importance of Being Earnest". Been a loooong time since I've seen an Oscar Wilde play. The last one we saw was with Onone, and ironically was Gilbert and Sullivan's "Patience" which is a lampoon of the cult following that Oscar Wilde had in his day.

Taking my family and meeting Tinidril, Faithwalker, Onone, Gimli's Sister and MITH - woo! Our MithrandirCQ is in town from the far away East coast and we've never had a chance to meet him before. Strange Elf is in town too... wish we could have pulled her in as well. The Big O may join us yet - he wasn't sure if he could make it.

Hard to think of things to do for a local moot when the movies are too long to watch now, and we've all seen them so many times - hope this works! I would love to have them all over to see my house (my sinks are working - oh happiness!) but it would probably be too long of a drive for them to all caravan over and back.

Still, I hope it will be a "good day." :-) We'll be thinking of all of you!

Happy mooting, y'all!

Oh I am so jealous! I so wish I lived on the west coast not on the east coast. **pouts** Oh well I'll just have to wait and hear all about it! Have fun all of you!

But...well, Mith is *from* the East Coast, and you guys have all those famous big theaters over there, right....? ;-)

Hello

I have seen "The Importance of Being Earnest" a few semesters ago, it was cute, and funny. I hope that all works out and that everyone gets to meeet.

Service went well, Fellowship after and then Home to watch the G-Kids while others went visiting the ill and homebound. Sorry I missed the MOOT. Very Sorry ;-{(
Hope you all had a fun.

The play was a good one, and we were able to spot Mith by his "Frodo Lives" hat - I watched for you hopefully, but also knew that you'd said it was most likely that you wouldn't make it. Turned out the play was sold out with extra chairs set up - it was their final performance so it may have been for best... I would have hated to have found you'd been shut out!

What a great moot! I wish I could have been there. (((Prim))). Glad the sinks are working.

((((OBT)))) I wish you could have been too - maybe someday we'll see a play together somehow. :-)

Sinks, glorious sinks! I keep going and turning them off and on, I'm so tickled to have them, LOL!

Sounds like a great day was in the works! I hope it was all that and more for you. :)

Thank you - it was a touch disappointing in that we didn't manage anything afterwards, but the play itself was very good and Mith was very sweet. :-)

Oh my goodness!!! I completly forgot it was the 17th today... ::sob:: Truly, I didn't remember until I just now read your journal entry. I had a gnawing feeling there was something I was forgetting... and now I know what!


Arrrrgh =(

And you were SOOOO missed!! I finally had to leave your tix with your names on them in hopes you would make it... it was sold out, so they eventually gave them to some other folks. :-/ Sigh.

:-(

Still, I'm relieved to know it was only forgetfulness and not a broken-down truck or something. Mith had a Frodo Lives hat on and was a lovely, soft-spoken Joisey fellow, he giggled thoughout the play and seemed to really enjoy it, so I think it was still a good thing - the row in front of us was all onone's and Gimli's Sister's family, so they were good company, but I really missed the lovely smile of my moot-mate. We all had to split up after the play, so no restaurant this time...

Next time! Yes, next time. We'll do this again - it was good, cheap fun.

(((((((((((tini)))))))))))))

Mooting!

How wonderful so to be able to moot with so many great people!!

Hope the play was a delight, as I am sure the company was! :)
