Disappointing day.

I drove an hour and a half to the little clearance show with car packed to the gills and best friend's kid in tow.

The forecast was Partly Sunny. I drove within five miles of the show when the rain started. It took eighteen miles of driving back the direction I came to get out of the rain. (I did not want to sit around in the rain--that show isn't great, and to sit in the damp for four hours is not my idea of fun, which is why I just turned around and drove back.)

Yes, three hours of useless (and expensive) driving, and nothing to show for it. I'm so tired I can barely keep my eyes open. And all of that loading and preparing snackies (kid's gotta eat, of course) for nothing.

So now we're going to eat spaghetti and watch Harry Potter. I might let him stay up a wee bit past his bedtime for that. hee!
