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.

Starting my parental journey, part 1

To be clear, I am not pregnant. Nor do I currently plan on being pregnant soon. However, I promised myself that if I was 30 and still single I'd start to explore my options for having a child either on my own or later in life with a partner. Well, 30 came and went, but 31 is still here so close enough I figure. My first step was to make an appointment to discuss options with a doctor because I could do all the research I wanted on the internet, but I knew it would overwhelm me. As I write this, I haven't had that appointment yet so no news there. Now I made this appointment in February (hey, I was still 30 then!) and it was originally scheduled for October (yes, an 8-month wait for an initial appointment), but last week the appointment got moved up to this week and things got moving! The timing feels right in a certain way. Two people I care about are having babies in the next month, someone else I love is expecting next year, and I also know multiple couples either trying or g

Starting my parental journey, part 2

You can read part 1 here . Yesterday I began the next step of my parental journey. Ironically, it was starting birth control. This medicine helps prepare my ovaries for the egg retrieval process. It was weird taking the pill to prepare for my fertility journey because you typically think of the pill as ensuring you don't get pregnant. Obviously, I'm not getting pregnant now, but I am getting ready for that eventual possibility. There have also been various bureaucratic issues that I've been dealing with. Mostly insurance stuff (as I'm sure comes as no surprise). But, thanks to a new benefit at work that started 1/1/24, my journey will be (mostly) covered. While, again, there were some bureaucratic hurdles that I had to overcome in order for this to all work out, I am immensely glad that it did work out. I am nervous though. In part I'm nervous about a lot of the practicalities of this step in my journey. For instance, I will have to inject myself with various medica
