No Jet Lag

Surprising but no jet lag.....
I went threw three time zones got very little sleep and still have no ill effects from the 3 days of non stop travel.
Albuquerque was nice, very nice.

OLD TOWN.
What a simply gorgeous little town. Being in the lighting business i notice the architecture of almost every place i go right away. This town with all the adobe architecture is just a joy to walk around. The only thing that got to me way how dry the air was. After about 3 hour i felt like i could drink a lake. Albuquerque for being such a dry town as it is makes a lot of ice cream. When you parched, tired, and a little lost there is nothing like sitting in the shade and eating a home made ice cream cone. I have some picture that i am going to try and post.

I Really hate flying.
That is not an understatement. I can barely sleep on the plane and even with the i-pod the time goes by so slowly. On all 4 of my flight i happened to be in seat F. Seat F is by the window. When i get nervous i either smoke or drink a lot of water/soda. Problem lies that right before the flight I go to the bathroom. But as soon as we take off I feel like I have to go again. Then when i do really have to go the dude in the isle seat is already asleep and I can not bring myself to wake him up and ask him to move.

I Love Southerners.
I love how polite they are, even when you face them with adversity. While sitting at dinner when I was asked how i take my coffee, she asked "how I take it?" "WOW, So many comments, so little time. I was in a pretty good mood and came back with a fairly descent comment. ("I don't know what the guys have told you, but I am not like that.") She smiled, then asked if i would prefer cream and sugar on the side. I politely said yes and was done with it.

Southern food....
WOW, WOW, WOW. Going down south and eating is like stepping into another world. just the best tasting food with all of the spices and everything else they throw into it. I have no idea of half of the stuff i was eating but it was good.

Late and i gotta run.
Should have a much longer post tomorrow.

Later,
