I got Cotton Candy!

Did you know cotton candy is actually just hot sugar thrown against a wall? My pals from the Chuck E Cheese days sure know. Hey wait, that’s a lot of my pals. I guess overpriced pizza and spoiled, whiny kids are the recipe for enduring friendships.

So – the fair. It was awesome! Cost was $76.50 + my gas tank is on E. Talk about gouging. I got sick eating deep fried zucchini. It sat in the pit of my stomach making me feel nauseous all night. I gave it some company with one of those chocolate dipped frozen bananas…mmmmm.

Riding the rides turned into a series of escalating dares. We started with the tame stuff like the Ferris Wheel and gradually increased danger and fear factor until we ended up on the one ride that we had stared at when we first walked in murmuring things like “No way in hell.” I’ll tell you, it was f—‘n scary. Half-way through I just went limp.

It was loud, too bright and smelly. I got sick from the food, terrified at the rides and dirty carnies barked at me to play their stupid, rigged games. It was exactly what I wanted!
