Red Rock Canyon, Las Vegas

Not one minute ago . . .

Jake: What are you doing?

Me: Just scanning a couple —

Jake: It looks like you’re photoshopping.

Me: Huh? No, I’m cropping.

Jake: Well, you’d better not be photoshopping those pictures to make yourself look better than me.

Me: You’re so vain / You probably think this blog is about you / You’re so vain / I’ll bet you think this blog is about you, don’t you, don’t you?

Jake: Huh?

Pix below the cut.

Here are a couple of photos from our recent trip to Las Vegas. Jake and I usually make a trip to Red Rock Canyon, which is only fifteen or twenty minutes away from my parents’ house.

This gives you a nice feeling for the park, but Mr. Goodlooking is too blurry. Here’s a closeup:

He’s gonna knock ’em dead, I just know it. As for me . . .

I look fat. But I’m not fat. I pass the pinch test with flying colors! I think I must have remarkably huge intestines.

    Waaaaait a minit, dude. I just commented below that Philip Seymour Hoffman is a sex god and now you’re channelling him?

    Wait til you see my Hoffman post.

    There was an anal fistula involved too, and later this week I’m devoting an entire post to royal anal fistulas.

    Okay, you two are out of control. First, Philip Seymour Hoffman, now, royal anal fistulae.

    I just visited Demented Michelle’s blog a few minutes ago. Soul sisters!

    Outta control, Doug? You should be so lucky.

    “Remarkably large intestines” — is that another way of saying “able to produce remarkable amounts of sh*&”???? Not that YOU ever do, I’m just askin’ is all 🙂

  6. […] Back here in the real world, I think this is why I love places like Red Rock Canyon (near Las Vegas) and Vasquez Rocks (in So. Cal.)  Both places inspire the same feeling in me: the expectation that just around the corner, I’ll see the rocks of my dreams, and perhaps also the cave. […]
