Yet another week in fabulous South Dakota. . .no storms a'brewin,' however. Just really cold.
I had a "you-know-you're-from-South Dakota-(slash)-you-know-you're-a-redneck-when" moment tonight when I was (surprise!) leaving Wal-Mart! As I exited the parking lot with Papa Murphy's pizza stashed safely in my vehicle, I noticed the vehicle in front of me. It was a minivan: circa-early-90's-pre-driver's side door-Dodge Caravan. Very old school and enough to make Red Green weep. The missing back window had been replaced by DUCT TAPE, of course! Several carefully placed rows of the stuff, in fact. I didn't see the van's driver, sadly. But he/she may possibly have been one of the "People Of Wal-Mart" types. Am I one of them, too?
Gotta knit and read some J.D. Salinger. I've never read Catcher in the Rye--a big divulgence on my part as an English teacher, and probably enough evidence to revoke my degree.

Wow, I can't believe you've never read Catcher in the Rye!! It's one of my faves, and even Puff likes it (and we know how little she reads). :)
