pixiecrinkleSo I jinxed myself the other night by saying "I haven't been hung over in three months." And after leaving DTCFC because a (really really bad) poetry slam took over the place we were knitting, I joined some friends at Betty's then ended up at BW3 for a few more beers.
Ugh. So, so very ill. Possible TMI alert: I may be the only person on the planet who has only once thrown up whilst drinking, but *always* ends up doing so while hung over. Ick.
So I tried to come to work yesterday morning, and made it here and stayed for about an hour before leaving after throwing up twice more. A day of bedrest and some Amy's no-chicken noodle soup and ginger ale eventually did the trick.
I did still keep up my end of the bargain in going to the fair en masse last night. We ate our way through the fairgrounds. I took a spiffy photo of the butter cow with my phone, but am having trouble getting it out of the phone right now. I'll have to try that again later.
I apologize to any of you who I gave directions to regarding the location of the knitting at the fair. It seems the Venus Vibe monstrosity/semi truck is no longer at the fair, so it no longer makes a reliable landmark.
I did get my paperwork filled out so some sort of prize should come my way when I pick the things up next week.
Tonight,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
automat76 and I are going to go back to the fair for the Prairie Home Companion Rhubarb Tour. If it weren't a bajillion degrees outside, and we didn't have to run right after work, I'd suggest we go as our altar egos Midge and Pidge, who are good Minnesota Lutherans, don'tcha know.
I don't think I'll eat at the fair tonight. Or if I do, it will not involve dairy products. Ugh.

Date: 2005-08-11 08:06 pm (UTC)I was not all that thrilled with this year's butter sculpture. They didn't do a famous person or anything. It was just the traditional big cow and calf, and then there was a little kid who'd dropped his ice cream cone on the floor, because he was stunned by a giant ice cream cone (which was probably about 7 feet tall). It was a very realistic giant ice cream cone, but not so cool, as say, John Glenn, which they had a few years back.
