heavenly_pearlWhy is it that every time I look forward to something, I always seem to be disappointed when the day finally comes?
I had been looking forward to our church's annual bazaar, the Czech Fest, for the past couple of months. It had been a long time since we had gone, and I remember that it used to be a ton of fun when I was a little girl. Unfortunately, it just wasn't the same. We only stayed for about twenty minutes or so, and out of the $25 Mom gave me to blow, I only spent a dollar at the cake booth. A dollar! That's how lame it was.
Well, it might have been fun if it wasn't so hot and Mom hadn't decided that she wasn't interested in any of the booths that required more than picking numbers and someone spinning a big wheel. Sure, I suppose I could have gone off and played the actual games myself, but Mom clearly wasn't having a good time, so when she suggested we go, I didn't argue.
However, the day wasn't a total bust. After we left the fairgrounds and got groceries, we decided to go to the grand opening of Cato's, which had just moved to a new store, and I got some cute new clothes. ^_^ The $24 I had left? Much better spent on a blue twinset.
(Another disappointment: The Astros lost their last game of the regular season, so they didn't make the play-offs. :( Oh, well, at least I don't have to worry about missing my favorite shows to watch them.)
