Twinky's picture isn't from behind, but there is a strategically placed guitar that hides the naughty bits.

So, Ela, I have to tell you, the clothes fit wonderfully, and the boys love 'em. It was all I could do to get Robert to let me snatch them away to wash them. Ha!
Thank you, thank you thank you! The jeans especially have been a godsend! My boys wear them out like nothing, at leasdt when they fit long enough for them to.
BTW... I have two plastic foil-type swords that went unclaimed and a tiny weapon, which I can only assume belonged to one of the tiny figures that the design team won.
Oh, and I got to visit with Jamie and Nathan this weekend, too. Ben and Lindsay and all of us went hiking up Kennesaw Mountain (not a very hard hike, but it was plenty for the boys, anyway). Then we ate at Fudruckers. Ben and Lindsay went appartment shopping while the Novaks came back to our house. Jamie napped while Nathan beat the snot out of Ron at Halo. Ron introduced Nathan to the acid-trippy joys of Katamari Damacy (sp?), which was fun.
Ben called several times trying to locate the bus station, then came back with Frisco. We hauled the boys to an amusement/arcade place. Much fun was had, and many tickets foisted on the boys. It was very generous, though I fear the boys may always be hopeful that others will give them huge amounts of tickets.
Frisco accosted me in a most ungentlemanly manner with his ticket-prize sticky-hand. I lacked the will to really hurt him, so he got away with it. I think my son Liam may have stolen a stuffed animal, or else used his "big eye" technique to get one from the lady behind the counter. Little grifter.
Then we all rode go-karts and went to eat. Nathan smashed his finger bloody at the restaurant, much to the shock and horror of all (he's fine). We parted company much later than was strictly good for the boys on a school night, but they seemed none the worse for it.
Jamie and Nathan visited us for dinner on their way to the airport last night, after having been somehow misdirected. I refuse to assign blame, though there are some people who should probably not even try to give other people directions.
Everyone is safely home (except maybe Frisco, and I'm not sure the boy has one). Now all that's left to do is send out the odds and ends to people who left things or whatever. Then I can safely change my phone numbers and move far, far away.
Nah. I love you guys. I'm just really tired. *snooze* Too much excitement for an old lady.

Let it be said that somebody really has to go out of their way in order to go the wrong way North of I-85 when coming from 316.

I had a repeatable dream about WenchConners this morning.
Actually, it turned into a nightmare, but before things degenerated, we were having fun. And when the people with guns showed up, I think Trevor might be proud to know that I gave Emma to him and told him to keep her safe as I grabbed the thing I was supposed to be protecting and ran away.

Check out the pictures. It's the wenches and the wench-men of Hatrack getting together for outrageously outrageous fun.

Yes, and we used to call the young Wenches 'Wenchlings' as I recall.
To answer the question... Many years ago, our own Jenny Gardener started a thread called LotR Wenches after seeing Fellowship of the Ring for the second or third time. It ended up being some 40 odd pages of role-playing in a ficticious place called the Wenches' Tavern, where the Wenches served the heroes of Middle Earth refreshment. It was fun. We had versions of the Tavern for each movie, I think.
I saved some of them, though I think they are all gone from Hatrack now.
WenchCon started when Belle and I made plans to get together to see The Two Towers. People said, "Oh, can I come, too?" And we said, "Sure! But don't you live, like, hundreds of miles away?" "That's okay, you find us a nive hotel to stay in, and we're golden."
Something like that. I figured it would be over when there were no more movies, but this year, once again, many people (mostly Hatrackers, but not all) gathered to dress up in costumes and play together.

Unless you touched someone's lingering snot, I don't think you have the plague. It progressed very fast, and everyone except me and Ems (I think we kept re-infecting each other) was over it pretty fast.
I haven't read these threads, just glommed onto WenchCon II last year and WenchCon III this year, mainly because they happened in Atlanta. I enjoyed both Cons immeasurably. Posts: 6316 | Registered: Jun 2003

I figured that at least one of them was still around.
I actually participated only minimally in any of them (too busy with work). My main motivation for going to wenchcon has been to see people - and Atlanta is close enough for me to drive. Posts: 5771 | Registered: Nov 2000

Do you know what I just realized? I'm probably going to be too pregnant to go to the next WenchCon!Posts: 21182 | Registered: Sep 2004
