Peach Days

Saturday was Peach Days, which alternated between fun and stressful, but I had a good buddy to back me up so I guess I was okay. I usually try to put some kind of inspirational thought in each post, but all inspirational thoughts are lost on my runaway train. Went on the wrong tracks or something, I guess.... All that's left in my mind right now is a multitude of images of dogs; big dogs, small dogs, medium dogs; Dobermans, Spaniels, Great Danes, and Woofers, (not an official breed). All through Peach Days, everywhere you turned, there were dogs. That may have been my emotional salvation for the first part of the day. Every time I saw a dog, I pointed it out to my good buddy the Lion, (he knows who he is,) and every time he'd shake his head and squint at me with an expression that seemed to say, "What one earth is wrong with you?" He continually asked me why I like dogs so much; he didn't get it. I eventually just shot back, "Why do you like Video Games?" and enjoyed the speechlessness of the next few moments.
I also went to the melodrama prepared for this certain event and enjoyed myself immensely, sitting with a friend's family and helping manage the children while the friend (hopefully) enjoyed his part in the play. I listened to yet another friend's expressions of love towards the damsel onstage and booed at the villain along with everyone else. I then determined that next year, I am most definitely going to participate in the melodrama.
