Noooo nooo. None what-so-everrrrr. I do not say things about the company that could get me in trouble too often, considering that I also work for the booth of one of the people who works for the company down here, and I value the fact that they pay me money and all of that.
And I mean, SoCal is nice enough, but it's a faire that is only a shadow of the faire that I was raised in somewhere between 10-20 years ago, and a weaker shadow still of the faire that my father began to work 34 years ago. Sometimes I get bitter about the fact that the faire now has such things as faeries — that just don't really seem to belong, whenever I think about it too hard — is all.
I've never had the chance to go up to Bristol, or any of the other company-owned faire. We do go to Casa de Fruitcake, I mean Fruta, every year, though.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
