...off to the state fair. There will be pig races, goat petting pens, a demolition derby, people with crappy-looking India ink tattoos & missing their teeth, funnel cakes, & cotton candy. Details of my Redneck weekend to follow....

Did you say Cotton Candy? *drools*

Sorry, I'm a complete sugar-junkie; in my opinion, the presence of cotton candy (or as we call it on this side of the pond, 'candy-floss') alone would make up for all the other redneck activities... biggrin oink

I was there--I always love it except for the animals. The "world's biggest horse" exhibit, FYI, is a heavily drugged draft horse with an untreated hoof condition--I had to call the SPCA. People suck sometimes frown

Tuesday...a friend & I discovered a new game today! Frisbee golf. We went to a local park & played 2 rounds of 18 holes. This has to be the greatest sport ever invented...i'm going pro.

Just returned from my friend & his wife's home as i was invited for a lovely dinner. Pork?....ugh, I don't eat swine!!

I am putting all of my material possessions (well, the ones that i have her in NC anyway) into storage...this will make the 3rd storage unit that I now inhabit...1 in NY, 1 in Baltimore, and now 1 here. Its actually quite liberating...

i'd panic if i had that much stuff. i can still move in one truck load - a half ton. which is kind of sad.

have some beers.. the move will go smoother..
beckyjane:
Glad you like the pic...I'll put some more up soon.

Why are you moving to a hotel--I want to do that...like a constant vacation! (Hope it has a pool).

And...I don't know what your last line meant. Hmm.

I just realized that I attended my 1st ever concert nearly 2 decades ago today...U2 Oct. 7th, 1987: Memorial Auditorium, Buffalo, New York (Joshua Tree tour). That day was, for the most part, my indoctrination into the power of live music. My current fascination with live performances (50+ a year) was born on that evening...18 years ago today.
To whom, when & where did you...

Ode to Thursday...i'll be off for a 4 day weekend in just a few short hours. Can you sense my excitement? No real plans for this weekend...just the usual menial tasks. However, i am going out this eve for the usual, or rather unusual, eve at my favorite local Scottish pub. Cheers, beers, & of course, live music.
Does anyone besides myself watch international soccer?...

You can't escape football over here; it's been positively stamped into our nation's psyche! Hardened men can be brought to tears by Beckham's footwork, they worship him like a demi-god. wink

Have a good weekend, I have the feeling that it's going to be a messy one for me... biggrin

Where is this pub at? I'm very curious to know!

Aren't Fridays great?
Why is it that people have to be so fucking dramatic?...especially on a Friday. Maybe i'm just fortunate to have a drama-free life. I say find a g-damn hobby or get a g-damn life...but thats just me. Is that too harsh?...a bit perhaps, but i just don't have the patience to deal with confrontation over menial shite. If thats how you want...

"Just a while ago my soul was confused, amused
...at what it did not know
Days went by
Amusement cried, I decide its time
we've got to move on now
but i've been so scared
Well i've been frightened, somewhat enlightened
we can change our shoes
Now we walk through a valley of color
so much better than the other...
way i did not...
