Heath, Vida, Michaela and I go to the fair. It takes place in some building, but we get there while everything is closing down. I am at the last stand, and it leaves. There is only a table left. I am looking out the window at the sunset. It's an extremely beautiful Colorado sunset. There is an older gentle man who approaches me.
"Is this the end?"
I smile, pause and point to the sunset. "It's the way things end in Colorado."
The gentleman sits down and enjoys the sunset also.
Evan and Ryan come in, we start to shoot the shit. Evan, Ryan and the gentleman all give me their tickets. Ryan starts to jock the guy, and I tell him to leave the guy alone. I curtsy to the gentleman and he laughs. He asks me to dinner, and I accept, but have to change my clothes and car first. As I'm leaving, I see Vida, who's trying to find some shorts. I give her the tickets I have and she tries on these plastic shorts. I go out to the parking lot, to my car, which is this huge blue school bus. It's old and beat up, but it runs.
The wind blows by me and it's chilly. It's night. I go home and get changed. I meet the gentleman somewhere downtown. It's very fancy.
The next day I go to school. I'm in Spanish class and the teacher asks me about the gentleman. He's some big shot Jim Bean owner/organizer.
