summ summ summertime

honestly, i had more fun this year than i have before, and i didn't spend a dime.

i love summerfest. and the parade is one of my favorites. i mean, how often is it that traffic is completely stopped, crazy people drive (and walk) the streets, and everybody cheers? the town loves it. and the whole town is there. people were claiming patches of grass for days before the parade.


even people (or mascots) from other towns come. i love cosmo, and on a segue, he's prime. if i could do one of those "sexy cat" meows, this would be the place for it.





i like this one because it's a good overall shot of the carnaval. and i love the way the ticket booth in the middle glows. that's pretty awesome.



and the fireworks are just plain cool. you have to realize though, that the folder of my favorites, has fifty pictures in it. these aren't even the best, they just are the first ones that caught my eye. i might put some more up sometime, but these will do for now. have a great summer, all.



p.s.- i remembered to make them all small!

the living dead!

i need to write something right because i don't know how long this will last; my keyboard has come back to life! a joyful noise is issuing from my hay-fevered throat. i love hernandez at the moment. he gets to stay for another term.

End of part one. Intermission

too early, too late

reading poetry and taking naps does thinks to a person. this is definitely not finished, but if it's not down somewhere, it'll go away too.

like the rainbow in a summer sprinkler
i'm sure it was fanTastic
i remember Colors, Sounds and Laughter
it felt Good, i think
now i'm just aWake and mildly conFused
if only i could remember what it was

finished

it's really close. i don't necessarily know how i feel about it. part of me is super excited, and another part is still holding on to the security blanket that has been my existence for the past fourteen years. i realize now that i'm pretty much finished for the year though. tests are over, and there are only a few assignments to clean up before packing up and heading out. i'm a little scared to move to a new scene. plus, i wish i had the guts to put out a few more lines before the curtain is drawn on this one. i really need to grow some guts.
