July Coronation 2016 - No Longer Champion
Jul. 3rd, 2016 11:59 pmAll good, no bad/ugly. Maybe a little meh.
I think I've put my finger on why I hated being archery champion, but rather enjoy having been the archery champion.
Thoughts during: You're going to fuck up, you're going to fuck up, you're going to fuck up...
Thoughts after: You didn't fuck up! You didn't fuck up! You didn't fuck up!
Court was nice because Their Majesties did all the heavy lifting. Seriously, I barely had any lines at all, which reduced my anxiety greatly. Plus I got made an Elder of Avacal. Given that was likely the last time I'll ever be in court again, it was a nice way to end it.
Meh? The heat. Also, learning that my "this will end in tears" advice to someone was correct. I mean, it's nice to have someone acknowledge I was right, but I'd rather I hadn't been right. Spectacular lightning storm on the way home (good to watch, bad to get caught in when the rain comes down in sheets, averages out to meh)
Overall a good event in a good locale. I had a fun time.
And no, despite what I wrote before, I haven't quit.
