Hehe... am now playing Teraa RPG with Teraa...she and psycho-friend invented it today:
think of some random anime/video game guy, usually a bishie. Give the other player the options. Then when they select, do the sound effects

Teraa: COMPUTER
Teraa: Teraa RPG. Continue Game. Loading... choice a) slap him, choice b) kiss him, choice c) run away, d) nuke him.
Teraa: d)
Teraa: *puts a TNT thing next to it*
me: hehe...*G*
Teraa: *sssss* *BLAM!* Psycho Lady: #$^#$^#%^#$^$@#^#$%#$!!!
Teraa: Me: that's called 'pulling a Cid'

Ahhh...fun stuff. Good, cos it gets my mind off that phone call I'm so desperetely waiting for....*sigh*
Right. Was going to explain....but I'll start with the weekend. ^_^

Spent the weekend at the Lions' Fair in Churchville, *great* fun.
Well, 'k, didn't start *out* so fun, but...amusing now. *g*
Laur and I got there like, 11, 11.30 Sat. morning (waaaayyy too early for me, 'specially after babysitting all week x___x). And we were triyng to figure out where we were supposed to be for the parade and all...and realised it was a ways up from where we were. So, we *ran*. (Laur more'n me, cos for one, I had sandals on, and for another, I think she's more in shape than me.. o_O; ) And I lost the paintbrush that was in my hair in the process. So, we finally found Mr. M., and do you know what he told us??? ...that the navy brass band we were supposed to carry the banner for? Was double-booked. Wasn't gonna be there.
In other words...
They didn't need us there.
This was far too much for an out-of-breath, hot, sweating, and already tired Ananda at 11am. I collapsed onto the grass, and didn't move for several minutes.
Then we got up, and they said they needed some people to throw candy, so we volunteered to do that. Was great fun. Threw candy to tons of little kids, and also lots of old people. ^_^ ...no, really. There were all these old people (ok, fine, "senior citizens".. XÞ ) out, asking for candy. So we gave them some, it was great. ^_^
The best one, tho... There were these two little boys sitting in little mini-lawnchairs by the roadside, I threw some candy over to them. And they didn't move an inch. But these old guys nearby all scrambled over each other to go get it!!!! *dies laughing* It was awesome.... :D

So, got back to the fair, set up our stuff...we were able to borrow a small card table, which we set up next to the Health Fair people's truck. Got fair amount of business...later moved over by the dunking booth, where fellow Leos were working, then had to move *again* when the health-people wanted their table back cos they were leaving...*rolling eyes* Ah well. Worked out in the end... ..we left about 8.30 or so that night, then Daf came over, and we tried to stay up to watch LotR. Laur fell asleep about midnight, I did at 1.30. *hopelessly disappointed in self* ...it was terrible, I kept dozing off, and finally just fell asleep right after they got out of Moria! ..*siiiigh*...sorry, Daffy.....(and Legloas, Aragorn, Frodo, et. al.) (wait...Laur, what's et. al. even mean, exactly? *laugh*)
Sunday, were there from 12.30 to about 4.30 - much shorter, but more fun, and busier. Teraa came with us, met up with one of her friends there. We had a nice little tent-covered booth all to ourselves, was very nice. Made $60 or so total, which's great for us (and for 50 cents per face, on average). ^_^
But oh, it was *so* much fun, it really and truly was.....*smile* Little kids are so *cute*!!! ^_^ (I know, have said this before...and that I want one, but....*laugh*) Just, to see the smiles on their faces (heh, no matter how crappy a power ranger I drew *g*)...was great. I love it. *smile*
See, and that's the thing, Dad (and Grandma, for that matter), were all like, you shouldn't have to be doing this, you're not in the club anymore, this is your last weekend, blah blah blah...an' I'm like, dude. I helped *found* that club. I've been president as long as it's been around so far. And I *wanted* to spend my last weekend with my friends!
...gah....
But yeah. The other highlight, was having Teraa-chan with. That...was great. Sent her and her friend off to go get fried dough, with powdered sugar, right? Yeah. Temporarily forgetting that it was randomly crazy windy out that day. So, Teraa and friend come back...*totally* covered in powdered sugar. :D ...Teraa decides to try to put on the other shirt she'd brought with (we'd been threatening to throw her into the dunking both, so she came prepared ^_^). Pulls it on overtop the sugar-coated one. This does not work especially well. And she ph34r5 the port-a-potties (with good reason). So, we tell her to just take the sugary one off while keeping the new one on - standard maneuver, right? Uh, usually...'cept Teraa had *no* clue how to go about it. So, we all gathered around, and told her where to put what arm, etc...it was great. Took her like, ten minutes or so in the end, but she got it. We cheered. ;D

'Course, y'know, get back, and Dad was all lecturing *again*...didn't even have the courtesy to wait 'til Laur left, the frickin' %$#^&# (yes, Teraa, I pulled a Cid... *rolling eyes* *g*)...blah.
But, enough of that...
