Hey, guess what--I'm almost 20! Actually, my birthday's, like, 2 months away, but still, wow.
"And I think to myself--what a wonderful world. . ."
I'm always thinking how nobody ever comes through for me and how everybody sucks, but you know what? I have good friends. Sara waited for me so we could watch Inspector Gadget together. Beth says I can come to the LEPer get-together even though I was never actually a LEPer (thanks, Mom & Dad). [By the way, Mom & Dad, if you ever read this, that was a JOKE.] And Amanda sent me a Sailor Moon postcard!
I love random Colorado people too. They're so friendly. It'd be really nice if everybody everywhere always greeted each other when they met. . .

How about, instead of philosophical/random chattering, I share with you What I Did This Summer?
We won't worry about what I did that wasn't too noteworthy. Here's some stuff I did that was noteworthy, and a little scrapbook (sorry there's no unadulterated scenery, but I'm not putting those pix up to be stolen).
Trip to Colorado (a good time. . .I <3 CO!):
Me with my sunburn (in the van we rented)
Here's my cousin Marcus, being a lightning rod. He and his parents stopped by for a couple days. 
And here's me on top of a great big rock.
Trip to St. Louis: We were actually in St. Louis a very short time. We saw Darth Maul @ Union Station, which I did not get a picture of. He was being friendly to all the little kids. Go figure. Before going to St. Louis, we visited some wonderful relatives. After going to St. Louis, I happened upon a miracle. . . 
And yesterday, we went to the State Fair, which doesn't give me too big a thrill, but it was kind of fun and I made some new friends!
I don't remember the tiger's name, but she was about 30 lbs., I think. The snake also weighs 30 lbs., her name is Cari, and she's 8 feet long.
