my weekend, by essie, ages 26 & 3/4

we went to roller derby!
they played 90s pop songs all night and i drank UDLs (it was either that or bourbon or beer, both of which make me sick), so i felt like i was 15 again, and it was both awesome and weird.




then sajee, tash and i went to the royal mebourne show!


we saw all the calkes and quilts and crafts etc. sajee and i have decided that we are totally entering things next year!


i ate a stick of fairy floss as big as my own head


and i snuggled a baby sheepling! the farmer said they are called "lambs", but i think baby sheepling is better :p


i love that there are still kewpie dolls at the show!


i always used to want to get these when i was little. i didn't buy one this time. i mean they are cool when you're at the show, but then you get them home, and there's a creepy doll in your house staring at you.


and then sajee played the game where you put the ball in the clown's mouth, and she won me a stuffed cow :)

i was a doofus and didn't bring my own camera, so all these photos are shamelessly stolen from sajee's flickr photostram

Aww what fun!
The little sheepling is adorable!
What is Roller Derby? Is it like when you would go to the roller rink as kids and they'd play limbo on wheels and stuff?

rollerderby is a hardcore, contact sport. it's completely awesome - here's a link that might give you an idea: *clicky* (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA3CKefwvZE&feature=player_embedded) ♥
