I also made it to the Asian festival today. It was actually some quality time with some of the same friends I've been feeling distanced from as of late. :) Among the things I enjoyed at the festival today, a performance by Chinese acrobats, Aikido demonstrations, beautiful bonsai trees, spicy Kung Pao peanut ice cream (sorry, I felt it was sinful to pass up trying this flavor, DELICIOUS!), and lots of window shopping the booths.
Tonight, I watched our local roller derby team. If I was going to stick around Gainesville for awhile, I might consider going out for the team. That shit looks fun, and I could dress all crazy and slutty and it would be acceptable! Instead, I just watch. The home team won. And, a couple girls on the other team cried.
Last thing I want to share tonight...I ate dinner at a Vietnamese restaurant. Got a gigantic bowl of tofu rice noodle soup. 'Twas excellent. And, in my fortune cookie, "Practice makes perfect." Auspicious.
I should clarify, the ladies on the other team didn't cry because they lost. They cried because they took some hard hits. One was a flip landing her ribs on top of another ladies' skate. Ouch. The other chick took a hard knee to the floor.
