A wonderful weekend, that now seems so far away.

On Sunday four of the guys and I went to Six Flags Fright Fest. I haven't been to Six Flags before. I used to go when this amusement park was called Riverside and the biggest ride was the cyclone. Now the park has grown and is about five times bigger. We brought the twin's mother to the bus station in Hartford first. I call these two the twin's, not to take away their individuality or respect that they are different people, but to have more anonymity in a sense.

Six Flags was so fun. In a way I felt I was being irresponsible due to the higher incidence of traumatic brain injury and brain damage that happens due to rollercoaster riding. I want to be all the mother I can be for my little ones, but I took the risk and rode them anyway. We rode Batman, Mind Eraser, Flashback, rides that I don't remember the names of and of course Superman. The lines weren't that long and Superman was worth the wait. When I find the digital camera I will post the picture of four of us on the Superman. I felt energized and invigorated by the day. The marketing of the theme park was a bit obnoxious. The time with the guys, was priceless. We walked through haunted mazes which weren't really scary, but there was this one moment when Z was looking up at this alien and a short actor was standing underneath his vision, when he finally looked down, she made him holler and jump. W and I watched as this went down and it was fun. Also dancing with the "cannibals" was a fun moment in time. At first I wanted to be offended by the stereotype of the cannibal, but one of my guys started dancing and we all started. Much fun...
