Ya know, sometimes you really don't want to write. This is the main stumbling block to my blogging success. It's not that I don't want to get these memories down, it's that I don't want to write them out of laziness I guess... And thus why I finish these posts day's late...

Anywho, yesterday was my Mom's birthday. Kristi and Dana came down, and Larsen and I hung and watched a bit of Justice League, which was awesome. Then Lacey drove down here and we went up to the State Fair. I had asked her if she was a fair kinda girl, which she answered with an emphatic yes. So we went up to the fair. On our way we dropped off some gluten free stuff to Natalie that Lacey had brought down. Very cool of her. After some driving around we got parked, and made our way in. Saw some cows. Saw some pigs. Saw some goats. Yup. I gotta say livestock just ain't that appealing to me. So we kept wandering, looking over exhibits all over the place. There was a 4H club room and some people did models out of Lego's. That was cool. I was totally into that.

Kept wandering around, and looked at just about everything. Tried a funnel cake. Not bad. Then we headed towards the rodeo. Chilled and watched the rodeo for a bit, the mutton bustin was the best part. Little 3-6 year olds hanging on to sheep with all they have. That was great fun. We left the rodeo shortly after that. Back into the thick of things. We played a few games. I tried to win her a stuffed animal, but the guy cheated and helped Lacey beat me... cheater. Checked out the sideshow. Kinda always wanted to see one of them. Everything looked just as I expected it to... in a glass jar. Then we hit up some rides. I rallied on the bumper cars, going around the entire area, dodging everyone else, gaining speed, to um... gently bump. Towards the end we picked up the fabled fried PB&J, and I made Lacey take a bite of a fried twinkie. The booth sucked. Way too much batter on them. Oh well. We headed back.

Driving home I showed off the awesome (weak) guitar talent (fumbling) I did a couple years ago with Tony. Played her a song Tony and I wrote together one night. Made it back to my place where we stood around outside talking.

Well I just got enough fair to last another 20 years.

Edit: I should clarify I DID have a lot of fun there with Lacey. The fair itself just isn't my thing. But I did have lots of fun.
