Yo ho ho...
So last week was the annual Fall Festival, the week all of Evansville gains about 20 pounds. I hit the festival each of the 6 days it was going, and spent a total of $60 on food - exactly $1 more than I spent last year. Twas a good time with pretty weather all week. I love the festival...but I'm glad it only comes once a year. If it came more often, I'd be completely broke and about 400 pounds. :)
Sucky thing is, it was rather chilly last Monday...so I managed to acquire a cold while at the festival on the first night. I was sick all week and through the weekend, and I'm just now feeling pretty decent again. Being sick sucks.
So my parents were supposed to come down over the weekend. One of them did. Unfortunately, that one was my mom. Apparently she and my dad got into a huge fight Friday and she decided to come down here by herself - a night early. Since my dad's car was stolen last week, he didn't have a way to follow her and come down himself. So she arrived at 6 AM on Saturday and I got to put up with my mom all weekend without my dad being here to balance things out. That was loads of fun, of course...especially since I was sick anyway.
On a happier note, Saturday night was Opening Night for the Ice Eagles. It was a great game. We won 4-1 and everything went off great. The fans had a blast because we won and it was a very physical game too. The best thing is, the crowd was much bigger than we expected...which makes me feel really good about all the time I put into this team. It's all worthwhile when the team plays well and the fans have a good time. :)
Anyway, I'm dead tired...since I got all of 13 hours of sleep over the past 3 nights. Not exactly the best way to finish getting over a cold, I suppose. Thanks to my mom...
