Well anyways about a couple days ago, my cell phone was ringing. Well it was my friend Tiffany, she was like "You want to come to the state fair?" and so that;s where it began. Well it was much her mom's idea of me coming along, and well Tiffany was there too on that decision.
Anyways so I woke up this morning at 7:00 well that's the earliest I ever woke up in like eleven months, well besides for going to church and all. Anyways yeah so I take a shower and all that get cleaned up and all.
Anyways it was at around 8:20, I get a phone call to be ready in ten minutes. So I was ready, and since they said to bring a hat, because it was gonna be a scorching day, I brought my christmas hat, the red and black one. Hehe I was like the only one ever with any hat of that kinda sort. So anyways after that we get moving, To Sacramento. The states capital and where the fair is. About two hours away.
Well anyways moving on, after about two hours, we go to Tiffany's Grandma's house, and visit for a few minutes. Well Uncle Bob is there too getting ready to take grandma out shopping. Well as all that, anyways lets not get too sidetracked. So anyways, we get one more ticket for the fair because we are picking up a nine year old girl. It's her Birthday in a week, so we take her to the fair for her birthday since they can't make it to Sacramento the following week.
So we meet her (Samantha) and her mom at the McDonalds like down the street. So we talk for a little bit, and then we are off on the road to the fair. Samantha is really adorable.
Oh and Tiffany's mom was trying to get Samantha to eat a little piece of a peach, or she won't get any of the free tickets to go on rides and stuff, so after a while, well Samantha was holding that off for a really long time.
Anyways when we get to the fair, we get free parking because Uncle Paul works there. So we do that, and once we get inside, we have to wait about a half an hour because Uncle Paul is in a meeting. At about ten minutes left, Samantha finally takes like a really really tiny bite of a peach, because she doesn't like them. But then we kept on bugging her, and finally she took a slightly larger bite.
Once Uncle Paul arrived at the meeting spot here he gave us some ride tickets (according to some of the ride inspectortype people that work them said were last years) so we couldn't go on some rides. Anyways to show our appreciation, well Tiffany's mom had grown potato's and so since one of the potato's that they grew had a little butt shaped area on it, we thought he;d enjoy it. Since there's a thing about the history of fairs and farmers and things, and so yeah.
We all head off in a group, and well to the food court area we get a little something to eat. Me, and Tiffany shared a bucket of fries. Her mom and Samantha shared some chicken strips and such. Anyways enough about food for now or whatever.
After that we all kinda split up, well Me and Tiffany went our own way, and the rest of them went off on their own area. So Me an Tiffany we go on a few rides, well the first was kinda a small yet "trying to be creepy haunted house" thingy, and well that was kinda short. So we go off and find some other kinda rides, but they don't take "last years" tickets. So we find off a little tilt and spin backwards kinda thing, and by the momentum of the spinning I get squished against the side of the car thingy. Oh yeah and the person in the booth made fun of my hat. And then after we wasted three tickets on rides, we go to see the cows and the barn animals. In the middle of the area there was this fake spider that flies down to scare people, and yeah well that fell right into Tiffany's face, nothing really happened but the people around were freaked out.
So anyways we kinda call her parents and we meet back up with them. Then we get to go on another ride, it was a spinny twirly thing, it was really freaky because the thing was like right there at floor level and was like "AAAAHHHHHHH", yeah we screamed the entire time. Samantha And Tiffany's mom went on a boat like water thing shooting other people with a water gun thingy on it, and they got a little wet. Anyways yeah.
we all go inside of the area with all the booths of like shops and all that, fooled around with the hat shop area. Got some pictures. And yeah.
We split off once again for like a half an hour. Tiffany wins some pictures at a game booth from popping balloons with darts, and she gets a big Star Wars Sith poster, and a smaller Fantastic 4 one. Once we are ready to leave, we go to the sovenir (I spelled it wrong, oh well.) shop and yeah. I got a glass unicorn for my mom, Tiffany got a blow up batman, and Samantha got a glass rose for her mom and she got a hand held fan.
Anyways so yeah that was mostly it, besides taking Samantha home and the drive back.
It was great fun.
Oh and to let you know somewhere in there me and Tiffany shared like an energy drink, that tasted like liquid gummy bears, and really that doesn't mix with water and coke. Anyways, yeah that was the day.
And I'm not gonna preview this entry for errors and stuff in case it breaks it and I have to retype it over. So have fun with the read.
