Swingin’ Good Time!
Festivals, Not So Festive For Me.
I figured something out about myself in the last week. I don’t like non-music-specific festivals.
I went to that Davis Hippie Fest last weekend (Earth Day?) and was bored, bored, bored. It was all Hippie consumerism with a little activism thrown in and some music here and there. I guess I totally missed seeing the electric cars, which would have made the experience better for me anyway, but oh well.
Today I made a cameo at the Pacific Rim Festival in Old Sacramento. This one I have been to before and knew what to expect from it, so I thought. It was even less celebratory than the last time I went. It had a few Island Pacific themed booths and some scattered entertainment, but it just didn’t hold my attention.
Both of these I attended with my new boyfriend, Rob. Today my company came with a disclaimer of intended abandonment. He know I was going to bail early. We even left my car at the light rail station so I could leave whenever I wanted. I wanted to get out of his hair anyway, so he could take pictures without worrying about me. He does that. Taking pictures is his hobby.
I just don’t know why I am so intolerant of this kind of thing. If it is a music festival and I have plenty of water and my sarong (good for sitting on, shading the sun or warming me once the sun goes down)I’m fine. I sit, or I roam and listen and watch and I’m fine. I am sure I missed lots of cool stuff at both festivals. I am certain of it, but I can’t help it, I just had to go.
Movie Night
To my locals:
I am going to see Star Trek tomorrow night. 7 PM at Downtown Plaza. You are welcome to come out and join me if you like. My new boyfriend and some of my family will be there, but they will be nice. I promise!
