So disappointed in the Michigan Renaissance Festival this year. I expect a crowd at a festival but I do not expect to be shoulder to shoulder with fellow festival goers in what feels more like a cattle drive than a happy romp around the grounds. Overcrowded and overpriced.

Why is it okay for someone to tell me what I should be throwing away or asked why I am keeping something, but the moment I do the same to them they get all pissy and say I overreact all the time, call me a packrat, and continue to be angry trying to make me feel like I am in the wrong?

This is crazy. Just thought about this while searching for a place to rent. What I'm making now is only about a buck or two less than what I was making 21 years ago. 21 years ago I could afford rent, food, utility bills, car payment, and be able to save a bit for a small vacation once a year.

For the love of all that is good in the world if you are out and about with your toddler(s) near busy roads, be a parent and hold their friggin' hands instead of chatting with your friends and looking away from them. I would prefer to not have to explain a child size dent in the car to my bosses.
