15 summer festivals that would be a bad idea

Now there are infinite summer festivals that are bad ideas, but here are some.

  1. Fire festival. Now I don't mean the terrible music festival, I literally mean one focused on fire. So there would be like fire everywhere. The booths would be on fire, the food would be on fire, the performers would all have fire. Just a huge lawsuit in the making.
  2. Allergy festival. All the most common allergens out in the open air, what could go wrong?
  3. Amateur tattoo festival. People who aren't licensed give out tattoos. Can't beat the price!
  4. Excessive non-recyclable plastic festival. How many layers of wrapping can we get on all food and prizes? Nothing can be served on things that can be easily disposed of. So much waste to clean up.
  5. Fanged animals on the lose festival. I think this title is pretty self explanatory.
  6. Wool festival. Everything worn at the festival must be made of wool and only warm things are sold.
  7. Only on in terrible weather festival. It only comes out when the weather is terrible. It's an okay festival otherwise.
  8. Gigantic human knot festival. No cheating allowed and no one can leave until it's done.
  9. Dare you festival. You must accept any and all dares while at this festival, no matter how dangerous.
  10. Untrained magician festival. Can they actually do magic tricks? Is there a way out of that safe? Did I just see the not so secret strings? Could be a bummer or could be super dangerous.
  11. Throwing sharp objects festival. Sure ax throwing is a thing, but what if we just threw a bunch of sharp stuff out in the open? And you could buy sharp things to throw as you want.
  12. Make your own fireworks festival. Fireworks are classic summer fun and now you can add a DIY portion plus the added danger of it not being legal.
  13. Who can make the most annoying noise festival? All you have to do is listen to all of the annoying sounds and decide which is the most annoying. Your prize? A vuvuzela.
  14. Segway and scooter festival. All of the sidewalk terrors in one place.
  15. Discouragement festival. All foods must be a disappointment and only downer games and prizes can be there.

I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

Starting my parental journey, part 8

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here , read part 6 here , and read part 7 here . I have begun birth control again. Now, that may sound like I'm bailing out of my fertility journey, but it's actually the opposite. In order to get everything ready for the egg retrieval, I need to hop on birth control for a little bit and then hop off. It feels a bit odd to be taking oral birth control, have a birth control arm implant, and be getting ready for an egg retrieval--but that's how it goes (for me at least--getting to keep the arm implant is rare or so I'm told). People have asked me how I'm feeling about this round of egg retrieval and honestly, I haven't thought about it much yet. I am focused on a big stressful event for work and then C2E2 (Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo--basically, Chicago's Comic-Con) which I attend every year. Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
