Same old Fun

Oh my god, I can be so tacky sometimes. Did you see that last video and me FLIPPING off the camera???!!!!! I am ashamed. They had to do a re-take because of me.

Anyway, not much to report. I guess I can say I'm up to the same old fun.

Work sucks ass. I hate it. (thank god i'm only there for four more weeks). I don't think i've ever really hated a job. Not cater waiter. Not office jobs. Not working the games at Western Playland.

me:
"Hi, do you wanna play, it's only one dollar"

"No sir, our games aren't rigged"

"Sir, please stop hitting me"

Yes, I was a carny. And I didn't even hate my job when I worked at McDonalds for one week and got fired.

That's right. I've only told 2 people this in my entire life. Ben and Dane. When I was young I got hired at the McDonalds in the mall, I had a friend that worked there and I needed a job for the summer. I was fired a week later because I gave out free food to homeless people.

At the end of the day they would through out all this perfectly good high calorie food. So, I started giving it out to the homeless and I got fired. Fuck you McDonalds and your BigMacs.

Even though my day jobs sucks big donkey dick right now. I'm having a blast enjoying the last of summer in Chicago.

We went to see Donna Summer at Ravinia. It was awesome. Seeing her singing LAST DANCE live and in person was surreal. I've danced to that song a million times. I've heard drag queens perform that song a billion times. It was very cool and she sounded incredible.

That Latino Music Festival was also a lot of fun as you can see my pervious posting.

Look at me!!! Ay dois mio, what a mess.

That lady was standing next to us with her family and she was fun. She kept making me dance with her.

"Move Ernie, MOVE!"

"Oh, I'm moving bitch. I'm moving away from you're crazy ass!"

The following day, I had some people over and to pre-cocktail and then went to Musical Theatre Monday at Sidetracks.

Musical Theatre nite at Sidetracks is like The Rocky Horror Show. They play showtunes (it's a video bar) and everyone screams stuff back to the screen, sings, dances, and during Evita and Titanic napkins are thrown in the air. That's my favorite part.

We also went to The Renaissance fair Labor day weekend. My third one . It's ALWAYS much fun.

This guy was amazing.

His character and show is called MOONIE. He's brilliant. When we talked with him after the show he mentioned that he's been in like 7 seasons at The Illinois Shakespeare Festival. He doesn't speak for about 45 minutes of his show and it's hysterical. He basically does one lazzi after another and he juggles and walks a tight rope.

But the best-est part of the ren fair is the FOOD.

I ate, Shrimp Tampura, Steak on a Stick, curly fries, corn on the cob, turkey leg, funnel cake, a corn dog, and cheese fritters. And then for lunch I had.... (jk)

This past weekend we went bar hoping with Zach and his friends on Friday.  A stripper at Cocktails rubbed his packaged all over my face and it wasn't even extra!  It was included in the original dollar.  Man, I love this country

And Saturday was the Red Bull Flugtag. A video of that is coming soon. It was good ole American silly fun. I loved it. I can't wait to put the video up.

People spend hours building these silly contraptions so they can do a dance and fling them over a ramp into a lake. What's more American than that?  Racism and Bureaucracy? 

Think and discuss
