Today, we are recovering from our trip to the L.A. County Fair yesterday. I am not sure how hot it was. I think when I checked at one point it said 104 degrees and it must have been at LEAST 70% humidity because I was sweating buckets! It wasn’t pretty!
Here are some photos from the day, but they were all taken fairly early on because once I got hit with sun stroke (that is seriously what it felt like), I gave up on the picture taking.
Check out all the horrible food choices they had! I shouldn’t be surprised, but I was surprised by how many people were eating it. I know it’s part of the fun, but I cringed. It seemed so over-the top wrong.
This next one is smokey!
What did we have? Roasted rotisserie chicken and tortillas! The Boy opted for a $16 corn dog!! Never give your kid money and tell him to go find something to eat. No pic of the corn dog but it was over a foot long and I don’t even know how big around. I swear, it was the diameter of a baseball bat. The top part!
The Girl and a turtle wrangler. His name was Rush.
We expected to see more animals, but there really weren’t that many to be seen. But aren’t these baby pigs adorable? The Girl wanted to feed that little runt on the left because he wasn’t getting any of the good stuff.
Remember the Zoltar machine from the movie Big? Well, The Teen HAD to give it a shot and the fortune was so spot on, it was scary. Scary, I say!
A little while ago, The Girl got to see JAWS for the first time. Do you think she is at peace with that decision? She looks a little uncomfortable in the shark cage don’t you think?
Last one is for my buds from the #ITAlong (IT read along). I saw this creepy clown and thought fondly of all of you.
As for today, I spent the morning cleaning and doing laundry so that I could relax for the rest of the weekend.
What am I reading?
I joined RIP VIII, so I am thinking about starting off with Bellman & Black.
What am I cooking?
I am making spaghetti! The sauce is from scratch so it’s cooking away. The house smells really good right now.
What am I watching?
Right now we are watching the Dodger game but we are about to pull out a silly movie from the late 80’s (I believe). It’s called Only You, not the one with Robert Downey Jr. ). I love that one but this one has Andrew McCarthy and Kelly Preston. It’s dumber than dumb but funny.
Other than what I listed, I am still drinking water and trying to replenish what I lost yesterday. I am not kidding about the heat stroke. When I came home, I could not get my body temp to return to normal and no matter how much water I drank, I could not get caught up. Today, I am better.
What are you up to?
