Seriously! Lets go! Cheap and fun. I'm so tired of any scene here at the moment. Just not in the mood for it. No need to impress, show off money, or anything else they want.

Just a good cheap fun weekend.

I'll take ya to the Strawberry Festival, then hit up a dive bar after for some drinks. That's all. I'm off work in about 4 1/2 hours, and it's weekend time!


Meh, I remember the day, well it was just last summer still, when I was invited along on all the memorial day family trips to vegas, or the river, or any of that crap. Now they've all got girls that stole my invitation! Screw them! :( I'll make my own fun, well if I can find some people to do it with :p

    Back in the day a buddy of mine and I went to the St. Justin Fair, and we went on the Zipper and our door opened. I was just like...hmmm well if we survive this, I'm out with this shit!

    to this day I tell them to stop that horsey...hahahahaa...

    LOL hahaha, that's a great story.

    My nephew won't even ride anything at the fair. He's afraid of the carney's and doesn't trust the rides. I have to take him to either Knotts or Disneyland. He won't go to Universal with me though. :( Says it's a waste of time there.

    I went to the Garlic Festival last July, and I must say I was a little let down. Your day sounds fun though! :) If I was closer, I just might come along! :p

    I am fascinated by the carnie lifestyle, so I love going to the OC fair to observe them!

    Psh! I see right through you and your excuses...my neighbor tried using that one me once as well! :p

    I'll just let you know that the strawberries there aren't good at all, so you think you're not missing out. :)

    I sure will. 7 hours? If it's 7 hours north, I'll be up that way in a few weeks. I'll save it until then and give it to you! All nice and aged. They're better that way, right? :p

    Isn't that the truth? My nephews are already bugging me to take them. Somehow, they have so much fun there. I never went as a little kid even living so close to it for a while. So that's probably why I don't get it.

    I'll definitely let you know next time I'm in Texas. I've only been once, but I'm sure I'll be there again one day. :p

    That's when it seems people have the most fun. Innocence, and an idea you just come up with and you just do it and go have fun. No expectations to live up to, it's just easy and fun!

    I can do that...we might have to make a change in plans though and do something closer to your neighborhood. :p

    I grew up down the road a spell from Strawberry.. Sonora. Sorry, no date, but a cheap weekend of fun would be.. well... fun!

    I'll ask my boyfriend! HAHAHA

    Have fun at the festival. If Houston Jones is playing this year, make sure to give them a listen.. they do some gospel that is downright chilling!

    Peace
    Just me
