| - Listen up! I go for the food.
I got suckered into taking 2 14-year old girls. The boss' daughter and her BFF. I dragged Jenni from work so I could have an adult around.
The only rides I went on were the chair lift and the giant ferris wheel. Anything that would mess my hair is O-U-T out!
Walking into the fair was worse than WalFart as far as sensory overload goes. But, that's what the fair's for, right?
We got there around 7, so there wasn't too much of a crowd. Had to stop immediately and catch part of the demolition derby. I have always wanted to do derby - demolition or roller!
Ah, the crowd at the fair. I have never seen so many sorry souls in one place! Seriously, Jenni and I saw a dozen different people with some sort of neck wound. WTF???
The petting zoo was cute, but reminded me of why I went vegetarian years ago. It also made my token 14-yr old question her meat-eating. There was even a camel! A CAMEL! In the desert! Fancy that!
The food. Ahhhhhhh fair food! Got curly fries for $6.50. I would have complained about the price but MAN ALIVE it was a huge plate! I shared it with everyone - even random peeps workin' the games!
On the way to the car, we each got a funnel cake. I had mine with just powdered sugar. Jenni did, too. The girls had their own, too. One got the apple and I had a bit. Yum! The other got strawberries with whipped cream. 14-year old girls can eat that, ya know. 37-year olds only dream of it.
I bumped into a few people I knew, which was cool.
By the time we left at 9:30, the place was PACKED. My boobies got elbowed by countless people who don't even realize they had the privilege. Snooze, ya lose!
