So the Sioux Empire Fair.
What can I possibly say about this horrible, horrible place.
For some reason, I ended up driving 5 other girls to the Fair Grounds tonight to...I actually don't know what the goal was. We just went. My first time in 8 years going to the fair. My number one goal? See McDonald's farm. It was, however, closed for the evening by the time we got there. So we wandered around the funnel cake and deep fat fried everything vendors, and by all the flashing rides spinning and otherwise making people motion sick.
Saw a lot of weird people, that's for sure. And a lot of middle school girls dressed in practically nothing.
However! I did get to see Sam Burrish! I miss walking to and from classes with Sam at USD...an event I'll experience never again. It's one of the few things I'll miss about USD.
Speaking of school, I registered for Augustana the other day! 15 credit hours...5 classes. Not too bad, not too bad. And I made the official decision to live at the dorms, and not at home. I am really dreading having to meet people, and I really, really want a room by myself. Oh heaven if I could have a room by myself. But I think it will be better for me to live on campus. More uncomfortable, but I think I'll focus better.
I have a big gambling problem, turns out. I lost 10 dollars on Bingo tonight at the Fair. Janet and I ducked out of whatever everyone else was doing for an hour to play Bingo. Neither of us could stop! And I was THIS CLOSE, so many times, to winning. Everyone who won were the people who didn't really seem to care about winning. But I wanted that 40 bucks, gosh darnit!
I better get to bed. I didn't get out of bed til 4 in the afternoon today, owing to the fact that I just lay down with my laptop, alternating between watching Ren and Stimpy DVDs, doing stuff on the internet, and then watching He-man DVDs.
I swear this is my first day like this in a loooooooooong time.
(also stopped at the pet store yesterday, Mini Critters. Just to look at the animals. All the puppies were crying, I listened and watched them for approx. 1 minute, started to cry, and had to leave. Embarassing, yet somehow satisfying.)
I need a pet to love.
