There were so many girls at the festival. I volunteered my services to run this merchandising booth today. As a matter of fact, I'm committed through the weekend. Artists, restaurant, and alcohol booths were everywhere. Culture was in the air...and girls dig that kind of stuff. Hell, I dig that kind of stuff. I'm not saying that I'm a girl or nothing...but I am artsy. And I can't remember the last time I dusted off the old paintbrush and gave it a stroke. "So what the hell," I tell myself. "I'm here now. Might as well enjoy it." And then comes the rain. She is an indecisive beast that cannot make up her mind whether or not she wants to leave or stay. She frightens many of my would-be lovers away. I hate the rain. Then this lady comes into my booth. And I tease her about the open can of beer that she's holding. I point out a police officer almost directly behind her. Playfully, she tries to shield the can in front of her. When I let her know that the officer is gone, she pokes me and says, "You tried to get me in trouble." Of course, I deny it. And then we have the most wonderful conversation...I even forget that it's raining. A couple of hours later, I'm trudging through the rain. I have to make my way to the other end of the festival and run another booth. It's not long before I see these two girls walk by. They're both wearing buttons on their shirts. So I ask, "Hey...what do your buttons say?" The really cute one shows me her button. It was advertising their dog training company. She said confidently, "We're dog trainers." I replied, "Oh yeah...well put me down for next Thursday." She gave a confused expression then turned to her friend. Then both of them smiled and burst out laughing. What do you know...maybe this rain isn't such a bad thing after all?
