Alright, fine! Since I have sooo many avid readers who were enthusiastic about coming up with an answer to the May 22nd brain teaser, I will give you the answer. Banana, Dresser, Grammar, Potato, Revive, Uneven, and Assess DO have something in common. If you take the first letter of each word and put it to the end, it spells the original word backwards! ananaB, resserD, etc etc... It's too bad nobody even attempted to guess, because you would have been awed with the super amazing prize.
Queen of Procrastion is going back to her case study now...

Small Town Farm Fun
Today is a hot, humid day and as much as I would love to be sitting by the poolside, I am in the house working on my case study. It has been an interesting assignment, and I've enjoyed spending time with my old highschool teachers kids, but dammit, right now the pool is much more enticing. Last weekend I spent both Friday and Saturday evenings at Mosaic - - a bunch of pavillions displaying different ethnic foods, dancing, and singing. Friday I took in the evening with Mae and H and a third friend as well. We commenced the evening with some Greek souvlaki pitas and some Ukrainian dancing, and H's little Roo was entertaining to say the least! We filled the little one with a ton of sugar, sent him off with his dad and went on our way to the Irish, Poltava Ukrainian, Carribean, and the Indian pavillions. We attempted the Scottish line, but after a drunken fight broke out in front of us and we got pushed around we chickened out and went on our way.
Saturday I spent the night with my sister and a few of our friends and hit many of the same pavillions and a few extra. I was the DD and ended up having to create the rule: 'If you find a friend passed out in his own puke on a dude's car, you must help him'. I had the privilege of literally dragging him to my car and finding a way to carry him to his house. And although he is a hell of a cute guy, seeing him this way made me see him in a little bit of a different light... Nonethe less, he's still pretty and now he owes me, BIG! :)
This past weekend I headed back home to go to the Graduation ceremonies, and even though I expected it to be somewhat of a flop because we normally have grad in October and this is a new thing to have it when normal people have it in June. Turned out it wasn't all that bad. New and improved I suppose. Went for a few drinks afterwards at a family friends house party, and then headed a few towns over for a buddies going away party. Night turned out pretty alright, and I realized how much I truly miss farm parties! A band in the basement, a bonfire in the backyard, and a bunch of drunk friends I haven't seen in years! You know you're at a farm party when somebody is too drunk to drive, has the option of stealing a horse to get home, and actually does it!
