Now Then Say Howdy About Me Guestbook Moved - 2007-07-16 |
2002-11-22 - 8:34 p.m. Not at all what I expected. So it was fall festival at the Park & Rec's before/after care program. Or should I call it blindness awareness night. I went expecting to listen to the kids sing and eat some deserts. What I got was 2 songs from the kids and a poem from the Kinders. Plus a song from the accompianist and about 45 minutes from him on what it's like to be blind. This was not what I was expecting. The kids did pretty well for having to sing a song, sit endlessly while he spoke, then sing again. It was odd. I feel annoyed, if a bit guilty for feeling annoyed. It's nice to raise our awareness and all that - but that wasn't what we were expecting. Last year there were something like 5 or 6 songs and the Kinders. This year it was disorganized and just downright weird. The talk was boring and rambling and the kids were restless and I ended up sitting and talking with my neighbor through most of it. Being annoyed with the blind guy - One more reason I'm going to hell.
