beansideIt's Monday! I could use another weekend day to recover, but alas, it's back to work.
We had an good day yesterday. We got up early and left at 8am to get gas and get on the road. My back didn't feel horrible, but I took a cane with me to be sure. Googlemaps took us the weirdest way imaginable, down all of these tiny country roads, but we made it there in good time. We got there at about 9:30, and proceeded to the little wine shop, and proceded to shop hard. We ended up with like five bottles of wine, plus a four pack of hard cider. We don't really drink much, so that's a lot of booze.
Jess kindly walked the booze back to our car, and then we walked down to the entrance of the faire. We sat in line with the *cutest* little white poodle wearng blue bat wings. She was so good. Just sweet and happy, and she did the trick where she jumped into her mama's arms. It was very cute. Before too long, we were let in, and we began our day. First, I grabbed a hot cocoa. because the morning was rather chilly. Then, it was onto some perogies.
We strolled some stalls, and bought some nerdy things--a D&D pin for me and a bracelet for Jess. Then, it was onto the serious eating phase of our day. I got a smoked beef sandwich with horseradish cream, which was very good, though messy. Jess grabbed a broccoli cheddar soup in a bread bowl, which was...okay. We walked a bit more and I got my goddamn turkey leg, which was excellent. We watched some falcons and owls being very pretty and regal. Then, we...well, we were tired. So we went to the Harmless Danger Juggling show. It was a lot of fun! The performer was personable and funny, and we had an excellent time. After that, we headed to the Globe for Fire Whips and Swords, but by the time we got there it was packed, so we walked on. We did some general shopping, got kettle corn and some pet treats, and headed out of the faire. On the way out, we walked past the Distillery shop, and stopped for still more booze. (Some drink mixes and a bottle of rum cream.
By this time, my back was getting pissy. Drove towards home, and decided that we both could eat. A quick stop at Hoss steakhouse handled that, plus I have steak for breakfast today! Then it was home again home again, arriving in plenty of time for game, which was a lot of fun.
When I got into bed, I crashed pretty quickly, and slept through the night.
All in all, a very good day that I thoroughly enjoyed. My back didn't, but I did.
And now, I shall go forth and get myself ready for work...and take some ibuprofen. Everyone have the very best Monday!
