It's that season again

I'm not talking about hurricane season, or tornados, or even thunderstorm season.
I'm talking about crowds, loud music, screaming, a multitude of smells, sights, and sounds, a veritable sensory extravaganza. And the people: all shapes and sizes, many in ill-fitting attire; teenagers, like sunfish, flitting about in small groups; whining kids dragging around sullen parents; people that make you wonder what institution they just got out of; other people who shoud be barred from reproducing; hucksters, smelly people in leather vests, show offs, and every other variation of human fauna. And now the latest in technological annoyances - people wandering around talking about nothing on cell phones!
We are talking Carnival Season!
We just got back from the first carnival of the season here. One down, two to go. Kids had a good time, I'm glad to be home.
