Wow, it's been a long time since I've made it to the Evergreen State Fair. How long? Not since 2004. Don't get me wrong. I've been to other fairs between now and then, but the ESF is different since I worked there during summers in college. It made me nostalgic.
It also made me hungry. Good thing there was a corndogs, elephant ears and strawberry shortcake to keep me company.
But it also made me insane. Because I bought tickets to watch all demo derby and car racing events and I actually enjoyed it. Crazy figure 8 racing trailer racing. One beat up car towing 2 other beat up cars (or trailers, or boats!) behind them while racing around in a infinity shaped race track. Which I enjoyed watching. Who am I? Like I said. INSANE.
You can take the girl out of the small town, but you can't take the small town out of the girl. Apparently.

Yeah, this is the book I got signed and then had to leave at the store when I realized I left my wallet at home. Amazon doesn't care if I left my wallet at home thankfully.
And what's weird is I remember reading that post of yours about the ESF back in 2004. It may be why I started and still blog today.
I didn't know you worked there in college. That's cool. I get the feeling Baby Singe would love a fair, but I'm not a fair type. I suppose I can suck it up.

It sounds like you had fun, that's all that matters.

How can I stop my bunny urinating on my sofa and bed?
I can't have my male bunny neutered due to him having retained testicles and although he was an excellent house bunny, using his litter box and only becoming the one bunny destruction team when faced with a paper product. He is now urinating on my bed and sofa whenever given a 20second window in his supervision. I really want to get him back into good habits and have bought a couple more litter boxes but this doesn't seem to be working. Can anyone help?
