I am sitting in the airport and mi hermana just made the first sentence of this post very easy for me to write. She glanced over at my computer, saw "BK4" and told me with her eyes, "You are a psycho." She knows I am waaaay too in love with my floor. Whatever.

Anyway...Being in Santa Fe is like being in a Western movie.

People here wear cowboy boots, belts with massive buckles, and have mustaches and whatnot. I heard one lady say to her dog, "Ain't no bark!" (What?) These guys also smoke out of pipes. Makes me think of Drew.

Guys, the sky snowed today. I thought New Mexico was supposed to be hot. It looked pretty damn hot in There Will Be Blood, but that movie was clearly lying. It's times like this that I need Tandra's and Steve's inability-to-feel-cold gene.

At 7,500 feet above sea level, we get 15% less oxygen (source: Georgie O'Keffee expert). This lack turns people insane in the membrane. My sister said we are in the southern hemisphere, and then that we are in the Rockies (she took both statements back). Then my mom said that New Mexico is attached to California and stuck to it (until we looked at a map). Crazies! Then my sister was afraid that she was going to die in the night of elevation poisoning.

We need to do some serious alien research. New Mexico is the abduction capital of the world. All these people that have been abducted can't really remember their experiences, but they all come back with scars on their bellies. But these accounts are all kind of confidential like.

This is an alien found in Roswell, NM:
