Re: WEDDING DANCEDoug said May 16, 11:26 PM:Some things don't need splaining and I suspect they'll be figuring it out. Besides if it was all splained where would the fun be in figuring it out? |

Re: WEDDING DANCEDryad said May 16, 11:43 PM:
 Dearest Friends! HoNestly! I’ve had it with that carpet and with invisibility, I’ve decided not to worry about it. If I pop back in, I do, if I don’t, well, then I don’t. I can see some of you who are new to PLAY-PODia are a little - uncomfortable - with this wine glass floating in the air. Relax! Drink your’s up and the waiter will refill it. Loosen up! Laugh! Because I promise you, a wine glass floating in the air is going to look tame by the end of the evening. The glass isn't really floating, of course, I am carrying it and I just happen to be invisible, due to a bit of a miscalculation of my flying carpet and a black hole. That is also the reason my usually so robust “voice” is now so pale. For those of you who do not know me, I am Dryad and I am now going to say just a few short words. WHO is sniggering? HoNestly. As matron of honor to our Dear Princess, I am also called upon to give a toast. Do you know that when you make a ‘toast’ with a posset it is because there is actually toast in the wine? You toast the bread over the fire, take the bread off the poker and poke the poker right into the wine, thus making the wine hot. Sometimes they add sugar and spices, thus making it mulled. Then in goes the ‘toast’ into the wine and the bread sort of sups up the wine and then you eat it with a spoon, it’s supposed to make you get well fast and especially heal wounds. You will find Arthur eating lots of posset’s after he is wounded in the side, of course they don’t work because, symbolically, the wound represents … yes? Excuse me. I must speak to this person who is pulling on my gown here. Since they can’t see my gown … well … I better go attend to this. [What do you mean ‘this is why some of us voted not to let you give a toast?! Since when do you ‘vote’ on who gives toasts! It’s tradition! The “Maid” of honor? Well … um … traditions vary. “Matron” is a dumb word anyway, it sounds like the long nosed person who makes it so girls in English boarding schools never have any fun. Why can’t I be the Crone of Honor? What? Of COURSE everyone is interested in the mythological symbolism of King Arthur’s wound and why it won’t heal … Oh, fine! ] A, hem. They seem to wish me to stay with the subject at hand. Do you have a subject at hand? I don’t, but if I did you couldn’t see it, well you might see the subject, but you wouldn't see my hand. Jena probably has a subject at hand. [ squints into the crowd, hand above eye] Jena? Wooohooo …OK. OK. I am here tonight to pay homage to Princess Heart Eyes. Most of you know the story of this romance. It has truly been a 'romance' of the wonderful old fashioned kind - bride fainting, groom wailing, dastard's dastarding …. The amazing thing is that through everything - and there was a lot of everything - Princess Heart Eyes held on to love. She wouldn’t be swayed, she wouldn’t give up, because she knew that LOVE is the most important thing in the world. Many of us know this, but few hold on as tightly when the going gets rough. I hold up my glass (see? kinda cool actually) and toast to LOVE. (TOAST!) And to the Princess who looks at the world ~ through the eyes of love. (TOAST!) To her courage. (TOAST!) To her tenacity! (TOAST!) To her nerve. (TOAST!) to her spirit. (TOAST!) and especially to her loving, giving HEART! (TOAST!) Do you know, if this was a Danish Wedding, we would have all sorts of traditions to uphold. If the guests clink their silverware against their glasses, the bride and groom must get under the table and kiss. (They really just sort of pull up the table cloth, as this goes on all night.) If the guests stomp their feet, the bride and groom have to stand on their chairs and kiss. Everyone will be drinking Aquavit, a Danish liquor that is flavored with herbs so it has a, well, ja a very different taste. I am the only person on this side of the Atlantic that likes it. Someone yells “Let the herring swim!” and then everyone drinks Aquavit.” And that is only the beginning. Everyone brings their little scissors and they cut the grooms socks. No one I know has any idea where this one came from. There are a LOT more, but the little man with the frown over here is patting his foot and looking at his watch. See me privately if you want to know more about Danish Weddings. Or Arthur. Or, well, anything. (Who IS that dude?) BUT! We are not in Denmark, we are in PLAY-PODia and this is our first wedding! We MUST have traditions! Traditions are a huge part of Play. I hereby make it mandatory that everyone come up with one tradition before the night is over. (TOAST!) Your tradition doesn’t have to be for Weddings it can be anything for PLAY-PODia. My tradition will be that the Bride will choose three attendants, to honor the three faces of the Goddess: a “Maid of Honor” - a “Woman of Honor” and a “Crone of Honor.” The Bride might choose an entire Circle of Crones, as there will soon be one here at PLAY-POD. If you read carefully, to the end, you may get clues! A clue is a good thing to have. Don't go away … there is more … |
