Dreaming the Impossible Dream since 1997

I am going to pretend that this php form works, and put in my entry in the
form for today.

I can’t wait until I get the whole process automated, no more editing 4
forms for an update, it will be pure geek girl bliss.


I have been so jazzed this week,
Carlo
and I are going to the Bristol Renaissance Faire tommorrow. And, we’re dressing up, it’s going to be a complete astonishing blast. I can hardly wait, I’m wearing my knee high black suede boots *right now*, giggle.



*Happy Sigh*



Today was a neat day too, I had lunch with my mom and did some shopping
for film and leather laces for Carlo’s outfit. Then, Heidi and I went to our
County Fair, it was sooo cool! (as some of you may know, I worked at county fairs all
over wisconsin for 2 summers during highschool)

Somehow, while I worked and traveled around during that time, I never got
sick of carnivals.
I still love the noise, lights,food, rides and people.


There was so much to see this time too.

We got there during a bicycle trick show, with the u shaped ramp
thing. Those people amaze me.
I mean, you can play skateboard trick games like Tony Hawks games, and
bicycle trick games, but you
never expect actual people to be flying around like they can control
gravity with their minds. They seemed
so light in the air, had such an elegance of movement and balance. Incredible.

I made sure to buy a corndog at one of the stands I used to work at, saw
someone I had worked with and was informed that she had married into the biz, by marrying the son of the biz. Goodness!


And then Heidi and I went to check out the bazaar going on inside, and we
found a wholesale knives place! woo! I got a knife for 10 bucks for my ren costume, it has a black blade with a black handle with a spider on it. (I hate spiders, hadn’t realized that) oh well, it still looks wicked cool.


wicked cool<br />
knife

Heidi got a cool one with a neat hilt that came up in a heart shape, um,
it’s hard to explain, but it looked neat too.



On our way out of the building we saw it was time for the high diving
show, we got cheese curds (we like cheese)
and sat down on the pavement to watch the show. It was an entertaining
troupe called the Flying Fools, apparently from
Canada, or France… “Whot arrr yu doo-ingg?” A third of the way through
their show they all started
running around in clown outfits and doing silly dives. But their grand
finale was the most impressive, they lit one of their members on fire and had her dive into the pool. It was great, and there was an explosion as she hit the water. It was so great, I got pictures of someone on fire.

heh

Anyway, this entry is put up later than it was written, forgive me, things
just seem slow here,
I’ve been working hard on getting the database thing working, and now that
I have help.
It looks like that will be accomplished pretty soon, yah!


There are 2 new Galleries of the Absurd



I promise I’ll tell you about the ren faire soon,
