Mur and Dig kidnapped me last night and we went to a carnival here in Denver. I've only been to state fairs, that I know of. So while it was similar, it was a little different.
We walked around, looked at the rides, and decided what we wanted to go on. Then they talked me into the fun house.
It was okay... I mean, moving floors and spinning sections, it was different. Then Dig got me on one of those spinning sections and spun me around until I was dizzy. then I had to go down stairs. Any one else see the problem with this?
Down I go... trying hard not to fall over, and then we have to go through this spinning tube. I didn't even make it halfway out before I was stumbling and trying not to fall. I didn't know which way was up and so the next thing I know I'm crawling sideways, and down I go. Flop. The thing kept spinning so out I rolled, laughing my ass off as Mur and Dig tried not to fall over laughing at me as well. Thud. I was out.
As if this wasn't enough, they talked me into one of the swing rides. I am not good with heights. I have a fear of them. I also have issues with my weight, so all I can think is, the chain is going to break and I'm going to go flying to my death.
It was fun however. A little creepy, but fun. So then they think they can talk me onto a hang-glider ride. Which they did. It was a little more fun for me because the three of us were strapped into the thing, so if I died, at least they were going with me.
After this, we spent a ton of time playing Clown Town. One of those games where you drop tokens to move tokens and prizes to a drop off. I won a bunch of things. It was fun. Then we had funnel cakes.
This is where it gets interesting. We're all in dark clothing. Mur and I in black shirts. And funnel cakes, if you don't know, come coated in powdered sugar. Which is white. Did I mention we're in BLACK? so the wind picks up and well, now we're in black and white shirts. And eventually, Mur and I get into a funnel cake war. It ended with her coming after me with a plate of powdered sugar. She was aiming to toss it at me, but when she got close enough, I kicked the plate up out of her hand in into her face.
Let's just say we couldn't breathe for a while from laughing so hard. And she had powdered sugar in her bra.
All in all, it was a good night. I had a lot of fun.
