Way to go Ioway

So "an Iowa district court ruled Thursday that same-sex couples can marry based on the state constitution's guarantee of equal treatment, court documents show."

I must say that I am very super excited and proud of Iowa for this ruling. This would be really exciting if it holds strong through the Supreme Court and all people are guaranteed the right to marry. Yea!!!

Really Old but Super Cute!

Rafting last July in Montana. AWESOME I was looking at old pictures and missing the beauty of Montana!

Picture quality is crappy. It is from a disposable underwater camera.

For the Grand Fair Finale!!

My knitted hat got honorable mention!!! I am excited to have received a ribbon at the fair I do have to bitch about how I got shafted in display. My hat is shoved in a corner and is not easily noticeable. Boo but yeah!

Boar-licious

Every year at the fair there is a competition for everything and I just wanted to point out the runner-up for "World's Largest Boar" was adorably named Corn Dog but it's owner is Commercial Edge Genetics. That sucks. Not only is this piggy miserable and probably already bacon it has been pumped full of shit to make it unusually large. Gross. Corn Dog, I love you.

Ioway State Fair 2K7

We went to the fair and explored the many wonders that it has to offer.

We met up with a friend who was there showing some Japanese tourist a good time. I think they enjoyed the extreme trashiness that is Iowa.

The things that we consumed (as a group of five) were: Walking Taco, Veggie Corndog, Fried Cheese, Fried Oreos, and a Fried Snickers. I think we would have eaten more had it not been a ga-zillion degrees out.

Overall it was pretty good but C-Dawg and I were devastated that the petting zoo was eliminated this year but upon further review we decided that it was best for the animals.

You may have to enlarge the photo to get the full feel of the sweet tattoo on his upper right shoulder.

So I would say that I am 3/4 of the way moved in. Steve is bringing a few more large items this weekend but here is my progress.

Obsess Much?

So everyone knows that I have too many books and here is the proof!

Since I have been separated from most of them for a year I have sized down-four boxes worth. That is not nearly enough but I am pretty proud of my progress.

I have arrived!!

So I am in Mankato and alive but no internet as of yet. Updates to come soon!
