the other day, i saw a guy sitting in a folding chair in his driveway, no shirt, drinking a beer. at first i thought it was weird. then i realized that he was working on his tan. i'm not sure which is weirder, just sitting there (in the middle of the day, mind you) or deliberately working on your tan when you are a 55-year-old man. (on my way home, he was reading a book, which i thought was an improvement)
about a block away from that, there was a dead pigeon in the road. which made me recall a tv news commercial i heard, to the effect of, "west nile is really bad this year." which made me think, "well, that is what you get for building a lake in the middle of the desert for mosquitoes to breed in!"
the state fair starts today. we are going tomorrow, to see a rodeo. i am really trying not to get excited, because it sounds like fun, but i don't want to be disappointed.

hi liz!!! (it's jeff) so let's see some photos. not that your writing isn't great and all, but i think we would all like to see some pics included in your stories. especially of the 55 year old man holding a beer and working on his oh-so-fine tan.
