Tuesday, March 17, 2009Good to be home: What does a legislator do when session ends?
By Lyle Hillyard
Utah State Senator: Cache Valley We stayed in Salt Lake City Friday after the session ended so we could take our grandchildren to Disney on Ice. It also gave us a chance to visit Arnold Christensen who served so long as the President of the Senate. He is recovering from a fall. Driving home, I tried to listen to the Aggie basketball game on the radio with New Mexico State. As we arrived home, I had to stay in my van the last 10 seconds to hear Tyler Newbold score the winning basket. I have found over the years that when I listen or watch the Aggies or the Jazz play, they always lose so I was pleased that my listening did not have that effect this time. I got up early the next morning and went for my usual walk. It was very dark and cold. I then realized that another great difference this year is that day light savings time began three weeks early. I have found over the years that when I get home from the session, it is time for spring to begin. Logan is so cold this year that spring may never come. It sure felt that way Saturday morning. I did take time to drive by my garden to see if I could begin the caning of the raspberries only to discover that it is covered with at least a foot of snow. Alice found plenty of work in the garage and around the house when I complained about not being able to work outside. I enjoyed watching the Aggies win Saturday night. I hope that my curse of watching or listening to the Aggies has been removed. I was not so fortunate with the Jazz. I only listened to the first part and the ending of the third overtime. Maybe I should have watched or listened to the whole game. My curse is so bad that my children say that when the Jazz begin to lose they know that I have just tuned in.

He goes to Nevada, gambles, and pays for sex if he is any kind of man at all.
No, I meant after the session.
