The Renaissance Festival kicked ass.
I had more fun there that day, then i've had anywhere in a good month. I spent about a hundred bucks on a bunch of cool junk. I knew i couldn't afford it, but hell, that bill i brought was burning a hole in my pocket. They had some pretty good wares in the Armory section, cool swords and what not. But way too much.
My friend Julie and I were walking by the tired old camel that takes little kids for rides around the pile of shit it leaves. She tried to get me to ride the thing so she could stand on the sidelines and laugh at me. I almost did, just for the hell of it, but the guy that runs the archery snagged my attention and tried getting me to shoot at the targets. I told him his gear was junky looking, and i couldn't hit a barn with the arrows he fletched. (jokingly so, i didn't say it like a prick) He said well, how about a little wager then. If i win, i get to keep your friend there, and if you win, you get to keep your shoelaces. before i could say no, my friend Julie agreed to his little game. So i lost by 3 measly points. 45 to 42. So he tied Julie up to this door with a purlple ribbon and said "dont wander off now". So i had to kidnap her. It was all pretty damn funny.
Other than that, we just wandered around looking at all the little cloak and jewelry shops. I had a couple of Killian's red from the tap, which was damn good. The hot girl behind the counter that served it to me, kept calling me "m'lord" which made me feel all important like. There were so many beautiful girls there. wow. I'm gonna have to work there next summer. I think i'd be the bum that plays the guitar in the dirt and takes handouts. I'd be very poor, but happy. Nearly everyone you meet there is so cool.
So anyway, I wont torture you anymore with my terrible writing skills and dull stories. I suppose I should actually work for a little while. Its just so nice to get paid to be on this site.
until my next incoherent babble. Fare thee well.
