I say...

A saturday of silly, crazy people and rides. People I'd mostly never met before, but am glad I did. Rides, some of which I'd done before. None of which I remembered.

I don't remember being this much into the adrenalizing rides when I was younger, but there were no rides - none - that I was unwilling to ride. Some were preferred over others (generally, the more intense ones over the calmer ones), but I was willing to ride all of them. Except the water rides after it got cool out.

Very long, but very cool day. Must return to Canobie, though, because there are some rides I want to ride again, and again, and again. One of whose name I cannot remember, but entailed a hanging boat full of people swinging back and forth. Reminded me a *lot* of a really big, much higher, swing. I was so thrilled! Lovely wind...

Today, party. Didn't realize that I'd been a little over-socialized at Canobie, so being at the party was rather interesting, both because of large numbers of children, and because of a fair number of people I didn't know (or didn't know well). Kept swinging between wanting to be isolated (swings are *great* for that!) and wanting to socialize. Really, really, rapidly. Bizarreness. Thankfully, the remaining plans I have for the day are much calmer, and involve far fewer people. Ended up leaving the party sooner than expected. But, was fun.

Must go read _American Gods_ for an hour or so, now.
