ah, sunday. the day of rest. normally, it's also the day of laundry, the day of grocery shopping, and the day of soft scrubbing the tub, but after feeling inspired by yoga class, i accomplished two of the three tasks yesterday. the other daytime activities i had planned for this weekend included having my huston street t-shirt made prior to the labor day game, hitting the icer ski show over on fillmore (saturday), going to jade bar for daniel's 30th, and visiting the renaissance fair in golden gate park (sunday).
the t-shirt cost $30, but i'm now the proud owner of probably the only "street is sweet" tee in existance. if you want one, just send me cash, all unmarked bills, to my superduper black ops p.o. box. so t-shirt, check. city hall, though, cancelled the icer show at the last minute. seems they (and others, including a nervous bride-to-be) felt uneasy about having jonny moseley and others haul in fake snow to jump off the fillmore hill in front of large swarms of unhappy residents and excited yuppies just to celebrate jonny's 30th birthday. hmm. now why couldn't daniel have done that... snow jumping in pac heights in august, uncheck. hit jade bar and drank sumojitos- yum. wish i could go in the men's room, as the mirror lets you view the bar while you wash your hands (among other things). and ALL men wash their hands. right. check.
now this ren fair thing. it's $15 admission. $15! why can't we use the barter system like they did in the old days? i'll trade you this 5 year old boy and a sack of potatoes for entry... you need more? i've got peppers, some twine, and a goat. really, i only want to go to see what one is like. i've never been, and the thought of carolers, jesters, and jousting just sounds crazy. perhaps not as crazy as the "we the planet" concert last year, where barefoot hobos sold magical brownies while andy dick yakked about pot for 20 minutes (why did i pay for that?), but still. is it worth $15? i could do all the research online (isn't that what al gore invented it for anyway?) and lie and say i went. nobody would ever be the wiser. but i don't lie. just like i didn't chop down that cherry tree.
