X is for X

The setting was band tour during junior year at Magic Mountain. My newfound band geek friends stood in line for two and a half hours to ride X: The Ride. Instead of hanging with them, I could be found sitting on a bench where I alternately people-watched and read my David Eddings book. Seriously, who brings a book to Magic Mountain? Um, that would be me. My intense dislike of roller coasters referenced yesterday was not exaggerated.


Behind-the-scenes Update: Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I'm grateful for my parents, the Lil' Bro, freedom to speak and worship and vote, warm houses, books that beg to be read, and a pre-Christmas release of Dr. Horrible on DVD.

In April, I went as a chaperone on a trip to California for a student conference with the youth group from my church. The conference was Friday and Saturday, and on Sunday we went to "Six Flags Marine World Africa USA" (Hi, I'm Six Flags, could I BE having any more names?) and I did not ride a single ride. I sat in the shade and read my book and did a crossword puzzle all day. I am eighty.
