for christi...

moral of the story: as the steves* were travelling down the road on their shopping adventure in tyler, texas, they came upon a sport utility vehicle. like most texas suvs, there were stickers on the back windshield with a sports ball and the name of the child involved in the associated sport above it.  this one, however, had an enumerable amount of stickers and names.  it was rather far away and mrs. teve was trying to read if they were all for one kid or if they were for different people.  as we're debating this life issue of why it would occur to someone to put so much crap on a freaking expensive automobile, i turn to abby and say, "you know, i really hate it when people do that."  abby looks at me in all seriousness and replies, "when people read from far away?"  yes, abby.  when people read from far away, it just gets my goat.  baaaaah.**

*steve is the combination of the tevebaugh and the stall women

**note: my life has been consisting of cleaning out closets and doing laundry.  this is exciting as it gets, folks.
