A VTSFFC Party, Day Two
I slept quite late Sunday morning; I’d not had enough rest in the last week, and a five-hour drive is still draining even when it’s pleasant.
shrewlet fixed a big breakfast for us. I was starving, I honestly ate too much. I spent a few minutes checking e-mail and trying to log onto WoW – I’m trying to earn enough quest tickets to win a prize in-game – but I couldn’t get a good connection. It wasn’t long before I had to give up and get dressed for yubbie and colleenk‘s wedding.
Wile dressing, I amused myself by considering the far greater number of times I’ve worn a Starfleet uniform than a suit, but it’s not as if I’d forgotten how to put it on. Dwight and I left the Arthur digs early, for we had stops to make – I picked up a cute card for the happy couple – and we arrived pretty much on time.
Listing the LJ and fan folk who were there would be quite tedious, so I shan’t try. The wedding was wonderful. Colleen was gorgeous and Ron looked great. I saw people there I hadn’t laid eyes on in years!
That sad part was that I couldn’t stay for the reception – we had a 5-hour drive back (6, really) and Dwight had to be home in time for an early work day. So I didn’t get to pass on my congratulations in person. But the pictures prove I was there!
Home now… I had a great time, and wish I could have spent more time at that end of the state. The Roanoke and New River valleys need to be brought at least 2/3 closer to Hampton Roads (or vice versa).

I told you that you wouldn’t leave my table starving. Glad you guys had a nice time. Hopefully you can stay longer.
Hugs
Shrewlet
Your hospitality is greatly appreciated! Be seeing you soon!
Shame you couldn’t come to the wedding with them!
Well, I was a bad Shrewlet and didn’t RSVP properly and in time, so I didn’t want you to think I was crashing the blessing because I wasn’t on the guest list.
Rhaps and I want to wish you and Colleen the utmost joy on new little that will be joining the ranks soon. BTW Ron, you did get a new application for Starfleet member ship for the soon to be baby. It would look like this on the application. Bay B. Jarrell. right?
Hugs again.
