Introductions | Tragic Comedy

Hey, so some of you know me, some of you don't. So I suppose I should make introductions. Hi, I'm Kelly.

See, that was easy, right?

Er. I'm 27, Live now in Springfield, IL. Before I was in St. Charles, IL, and Elgin, IL, and Macomb, IL, and Tampa, FL. I went to high school with Scott and Lori and Matthew and whoever else I missed, dated Scott, then went to college, and was friends with Jackie and, well whoever else I missed thats on Goo Game.

I'm dating Scott again. Hi Scott! :-D

Uhm. I'm a teacher's aide for behavior kids at a school/residential facility for kids with severe disabilities. I've done this sorta thing for the last 6 years, and aspire to be a special ed teacher. I've pretty much worked with every aspect of disability, from autism to...uh something that starts with a Z.

A huge part of my life is this game, where..ahh basically we all dress up and hit each other with sticks. It's a medieval "reenactment" game, but thats a lie. I'd say it's a LARP, that that's also a lie. Its kinda like both. Its fun as hell, and to be quite honest, the main drive that I have in it this days is for a social aspect. Nearly all my friends are in it, and it's worldwide. Hell, I host a Croatian group's website on my site.

Today I take office as Duchess for the local group, in fact, which is about 50 some odd people. I should be there now, but I had a horrible migrane (second ever) this morning and I just found out that some of the food won't fit in the oven of the person cooking feast. So I'm here, waiting.

Also feeling kinda good now that I took some drugs for my headache.

Yeah, I got sucked in. Its sorta the redheaded stepchild of the SCA. I'm actually pretty well known interkingdom-wise, where were you living at the time? I bet I can name the park, maybe someone from that park too.

That's hillarious. I miss college. And high school. I mean, I don't miss the actual classes, but all my friends.

Sewing

So Lori posted some her newest project update and I felt the need to put in my project. I'm making a sluff coat, which is a long vest type thing. Everyone here seems to wear one, and I think they are awesome. Go »

ARGH!

I hate it when bad stuff happens, it always happens all at once. I lent my favorite cloak, that I spent about 300 bucks making several years ago, to a friend, who lent it to another friend who lost it, in Indiana. This happened in November. Go »

Amusing

So this weekend, which I may blog more about later, had a particular funny spot, I would like to think. As some of you may know, I'm addicted to Brotherhood 2.0, which is a video blog of two brothers. Go »

I hate my job

Today I got kicked in the face, spit on three times, twice it landed in my mouth, plus various kicks, scratches, pinches, attempted bites and more swearing at than I can count. I've been doing this sort of thing, working with behavior kids, for 6 years now. I just can't stand it anymore. Go »

Update

I haven't posted in a while. Scott and I successfully made it to Florida, thanks to all my friends who are the only reason we were able to get the van loaded. Thank you so much, all! Go »
