I do enjoy road trips, though... we have a few days to fuck around, so we'll probably be stopping at Mount Rushmore. Or maybe Wall Drug or the Corn Palace. What South Dakota doesn't have in actual touristy shit, it makes up for in fantastic, kitschy advertising. That starts several hundred miles away on the interstate coming from either direction. It's the ultimate in roadside America.
We'll presumably be going through Wyoming, too, which is big and empty. I'm continually amazed at the emptiness of the western United States... it's awesome. literally. I'll miss it out here.
Saskatchewan is plenty empty, though. One of my favorite jokes I've heard so far is that you can go to Saskatchewan and watch your dog run away for four days. Ha!
In the mean time, though, I am still here. And it won't stop fucking raining. It's supposed to be sunny and warm in Idaho right now, but today? It's overcast and stupid and in the 50's. Again. Fuck! I'm trying not to let weather destroy my mood, and it usually doesn't, but lately it's been a challenge... what is this bullshit, anyway?
Whine, whine, whine. Somebody pass the cheese.

I may be going up to northern Saskatchewan before school starts... yay! Trees and lakes and bears, oh my! Well, I'll pass on the bears, thanks. I've realized that in my old age I like nature, but I am pretty fucking terrified of wild animals. I spend a lot of time worried that I'm going to get eaten by a bear. Plus, this past weekend I got bucked a little on a horse AND got hissed at by a snake while running. I like animals a lot... but I'm not sure if they like me!
Anyway, I would like to end on a positive note. Consider it a service message.
