i'm so not at the beach

another day that kent is far away working. and i am very much not at the beach.  kent is at the beach (working).  i talked to scott his morning and he is at the beach.  at least that's where he was headed when we spoke.  

the last time i looked good at the beach was captured in a photo that you can see below (or to the side).  i am with aunt mona in the pic and as luck would have it, i'm topless.  first and last time for that, too.  unless i have that work i've been thinking of having.  

so yesterday i took the kids to a place that kent played called "new carlisle days".  if you love indiana then plug your ears for this next part.  where the hell do we live people!  the crap people were selling at this unbelievably crappy "fest" was mind-blowing!  and i am not overstating this.  now i will attempt to describe what blew my mind.  all of the booths seemed to have most if not all of their merchandise on sale.  have you ever even seen a booth with stuff on sale at a festival/fair-like thing?  some even had extra classy hand written signs that said, "everything must go"  Why?  are you running from the law and you can't keep toting this stuff around with you while you're on the lamb?  

then, more than 3/4 of the "products" (loosely used term) were of the bean bag nature.  whose playing all these rounds of the bean bag game.  i finally stopped and asked someone what was meant by the term corn-hole.  it sounded like porn so i wanted to be in the know.  nope just the beanbag game.  so we live in the sticks, huh?  just one more thing about the bean bags for sale before we move on to more crap.  you cannot name all the different patterns on the fabric that these bags are made in.  nascar, budweiser, elmo, colts, dora, spongebob, even toyota?  "dude, i'm so reppin my corolla with these beanbags." 

i know i can't do justice to the next item that i came across.  have you seen the nuts?  someone lacquers a piece of wood and then gets out their handy hot glue gun and sticks a miniature item to the wood and then puts an unopened walnut next to it.  so here's the finished product...and tiny tv + a nut=tv nut.  a tiny pickup + a nut= a truck nut.  a mini poodle + a nut= a dog nut.  are you getting this?  how much would you pay for a "nut"?  $3 if you go to new carlisle.  

so p just woke up which means i'm done.

go green
