My favorite "selfie" quote: "I am not influential. I do chain stitch." Well, come on folks, it's true.
My son is The Honorable Lord Ian the Red. He is back in the West for several years becoming a lawyer and does not play much. My daughter is Elsbeth of the Tinies. She doesn't play much either, but my favorite memory of her at an event was GWW 2001 when she spent the whole weekend running wild barefoot in her white underdress. With her wispy red hair and tiny, dirty toes, she looked like a faerie. It seems unfair that I cannot get a Laurel for producing these two, but I was told that it must be reproducible and well, NO I cannot manage another tiny red head! Also, I was saving my site tokens for my Pelican and can't figure out who to turn them into now that I have it. Every time I ask the Vicountess Lorissa du Griffin, she dissolves into helpless laughter. ;)
