Final Day of the State Fair

SC State Fair    
Today is the last day of the SC State Fair.

Didn't make it either -- as I predicted prior to it's opening. I think a few of my immediate family and some of my friends went from what I have gleaned in conversations. Mom and I opted for the prime rib at Zorba's instead.

Something about the allure has been failing as attraction for me personally.

I think it all started when they stopped selling beer -- yes I suppose I am that shallow; but the entertainment aspects are not so much 'adult' as child and senility oriented unless you're a crafts / flowers / baking contest freak or simply predisposed to boredom or the carney scene.

My last excursion there was in 1997. I went with my late friend Dewitt.

This year I simply preferred to stay at home and write code ... again. Talk about drab !

As for me, I await that time when the urge returns if ever; for though I missed yet another I don't really see it in my future again ...

I kept thinking I was going to ask the little blonde girl from work but that never materialized. It's a "too little too late" thing in the effort department that ultimately did me in.

Hope you went if you wanted and that you had a good time as well if you did attend. ta ta !
