I LOVE THE FAIR

Today I snuggled sheep!

Okay wait lemme backtrack - Dad and I went to the fair today, because I am a small child at heart. XD So yeah, I dragged Dad over to the poultry barn, where almost all the birds were for sale and the stupid teens were like "lulz let's get one for target practice" and tormenting the birds and I gave them filthy looks until they left. There were Australorps and Ameraucanas and Chochins and Polishes and Orpingtons and my favorites: Wyandottes. Oh gosh I want gold-laced Wyandottes. So I admired them for a bit.

SHEEP. Oh gosh sheep. The Lincolns were SO FRIENDLY. There were a couple that just came up to me and demanded scritches. I am not even kidding. I started communing with them, holding their heads between my hands while I rubbed the soft wool under their chins. fUcKiNg MiRaClEs, mAn. XD Anyway the sheep were very sweet and I loved them to bits. Someone takes very good care of them.

Also I owe an apology to stereowire because some of those cows definitely were the same size as the tapirs. But most of them were a lot bigger so idk. D: The oxen were frigging enormous though. Dayum.

We also checked out the needlecraft stuff and the vegetable barn, and there was a cake that had been dropped just as it went up for judging - the girl salvaged it by calling it an abstract cake. The judges heard about this (I mean, it's hard to mistake a dropped cake for anything else) and gave her a third place ribbon... out of pity I guess. :\ I am not a big fan of the pitying "we're all winners!" mentality. Oh well, it was nice of them or something. There was a cake in another age class that had a fucking water feature. Seriously. With running water.

Still sick. I don't want to jinx it, but it's not terrible so far. I'm just a bit out of it and kinda sore, but we'll see how it goes. I think I can afford to be sick most of this week, so. Just not Tuesday or Wednesday. I can't ever be sick on those days. Seriously, I'll fail if I'm absent. Why they want me to force myself to come to chemistry lab when I'm delirious is beyond me...

SHEEP. SO SWEET. ♥ Only now I have a headache and I hurt and I'm sicker than ever. Soooo yeah, time for a hot shower and bed and maybe some tea.
