Woo's blog: "Steph's Musings...."

Alright, braved the Minnesota State Fair today. Nothing like a fair to make you hate people even more. People are so freakin inconsiderate of others. My mom had ankle surgery a month ago so she had to use one of those motorized carts to enjoy the festivities. Well, somehow she became completely invisible on that thing. She's on a big cart but somehow people didn't see her. Was nearly impossible to go anywhere because people would just cut her off as she was going. Like somehow she'd slow them way down if they had to stop for 5 seconds to let her pass. I feel bad for people who are always in wheelchairs and things. I truly wonder if they see that kind of inconsiderate behavior constantly. The state fair is also known as the Great Minnesota Get Together. Should be called the "Great Minnesota Let's Get Fatter Together". I'm not sure if its just that type of envrionment draws in obese people or what, but seriously I really don't know how MN can be one of the healthiest states. I know, I'm obese myself and don't have much room to talk. But I also wasn't sitting on a park bench double fisting a pronto pup and cheese curds like they were going out of style. Maybe I just have a different mentality but I can't see spending 100's of dollars on that food there to fill some crazy need and intakeing 1000's of calories. Its mind boggling some of the behaviors people show in public. All in all it was a fun time. My kids liked the rides and they had fun seeing the farm animals. And I know next year when the fair time comes around I'll be itching to go again.
