The Nevada Day Parade was very, well, Nevadan. If you were missing that guy in your town who walks around wearing red thermal underwear, suspenders, huge belly, a long white beard, a pick and a huge goofy hat- he was in Carson City with us.

I have many a tale to tell but right now I’m slaving away on an Econ paper that’s due at midnight tonight. Midnight on Halloween. Now that is scary, no?

One quick morsel tho. My favorite slice of irony from yesterday: When the float for Daddy Dick’s went by, with a guy performing Sweet Home Alabama… in the Nevada Day parade. Everyone was rocking out. People wonder how I stay so cynical.

I hear there was a Burning Man float this year. Cause, you know, when I think Nevada, I think pot-smoking-freaks-in-a-desert-burning-a-huge-manlike-figure.

PS. I love this state.

That’s like…my friend Sarah was ultimately amused by the fact that one year, the Independence Day festivities in Houston were sponsored by BP. BP. As in British Petroleum. Um…alright then.

Nevada Day

I’m no Nevadan. I hang my head in shame today for I neglected to fully honor Nevada Day on Friday. Like the misguided masses I reveled in this “Halloween” we speak so much of, virtually ignoring my new heritage. Perhaps it had something to do with the fact that I was one of the five people who actually had to work, or perhaps I’m just an ignorant wretch. Next year, Nevada- I will honor you.
