On 2010's Leaving...

I'll make this brief

but this was the year

it was a mix of keeping important people close to me and scraping off the ones that aren't

January started off with me getting on facebook

and it was all because of the return of a wrestling legend

You Know You're Drunk When You Can't Tell if You're Being Mugged...

Ok let's just jump right in on this one

so this Christmas I will be at KEYE for two years

there will not be a third

I am not a master control operator

I don't know what I am but it's not that

I've been scanning craigslist for jobs

and I came across this one: A Pub Quiz Host

I would host the quiz, interact with the crowd, tell a few jokes, take pictures of the night, and blog about it the next day

and the beer is free

I might be over qualified

Letters From Mexico

Howdy from Mejico

also known as North Lamar

so I've had some strange encounters from the locals around here

I thought I'd jot a few of them down

first of all everyone speaks Spanish over here

even the Indians that work in the convience stores

and Target

and of course they all assume I do as well

of course I don't

we never learned

my mom told me when I asked her why we don't speak Spanish she said it creeped her out to hear children speaking Spanish

plus we'd never need it

so now everywhere I go in my "hood" I have to close my lips tight and shake my head at people who talk to me in Spanish

I was unloading my laundry one day and some vaquero next to me was trying to ask me why his clothes weren't dry

or to call 911

I can't tell

I don't speak spanish
