Was it Worth $100 to go to the County Fair?

Here's what I got for my money:

• 2 Jumbo bags of Cotton Candy
• A short ride on the Merry-Go-Round with 10 noisy teenagers who got in trouble for facing the WRONG WAY (nope, I don't know them).
• Fifteen minutes on the Ferris Wheel which included at least 2 minutes of terror at the very top as the people under me laughed. They knew me.
• A nice long talk with Haley's boyfriend who had Candy Apple dripping off his nose, while she stood in line for one of the rides without him.
• The look on her face when she saw me talking to him.
• Two dozen sneezes after visiting the chickens.
• Being used as a towel three times by children with wet, sticky hands.
• The guilt on the face of an old roommate who screwed me financially by running out on our lease. I love guilt.
• This paper bracelet that says "Dreamland Amusement, Inc." that I won't take off until it falls off.
• A stomach ache from all the cotton candy.
• 3 happy children
