Yeah, I put a goat in my mouth
I survived Fiesta. Me and 500,000 of my closest friends swarmed downtown San Antonio Saturday night for the Flambeau Parade. This was after spending most of the day at the King William fair. And of course this was preceded by a family meal at a downtown Mexican food palace. I had cabrito and it was as tender as my heart while as spicy as my smile. HA
If you have never been to a Fiesta parade, they last for hours and most floats have pretty girls dressed in fine gowns. You will hear the crowds begin to chant "SHOES SHOES SHOES". This is when the girls gently raise their dresses above their ankles and show off their shoes. Not dress shoes, mind you. These shoes will either be tennis shoes covered in sparkly beads or bright colored boots or some other outlandish footwear. I never get tired of it and I don't even have a foot fetish.
The parts did arrive and I had them installed Thursday night. However it turned out the relay was fried so I had to make a trip to the Ford dealer Friday morning to get raped, I mean, buy a small relay the size of a matchbox for over $100. Got back home and snapped in the relay and we were on the way by 10:30am.
We got home around noon on Sunday and I was whipped. Believe it or not I did not even have a cocktail all day Sunday. I guess I played too hard at Fiesta. Anyway, we are now back at school and work and I'm ready to get back home at the end of the day and do nothing except watch the garden grow.
