New Mexico or Bust!


926 miles east of Nipomo, CA, we ended up in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Everyone asks "WHY?" and everyone says, "Well, at least New Mexico is beautiful...oh, you're in the far south? You should just smuggle aliens across the border."

We came here for work, since Sarah just graduated and took a job here.

So, we found a house to live in on the edge of town were only coyote's and cockroaches roam.

We are have an air mattress to sleep on and patio furniture in our living room. We're waiting for the moving truck to arrive.

Yesterday the cable guy hooked us up and it was like giving fire to a cave man. I opened my laptop and the light almost blinded me. We had gone days disconnected from the world and drifting aimlessly, but now we have been found. Got caught up on Hell's Kitchen.

The house is mostly empty and the few things we have are scattered around with no real place for them to go.


The cable TV box sits on the floor with nothing attached. To entertain myself I have been killing bugs and checking all the light bulbs to see if they work.

Yesterday, some little ants came in and started eating the cats food. I went to the store and found the aisle of death sprays and brought home 4 spray bottles. I believe in using every available chemical to kills pests. Sarah and I worked in tandem just like Bonnie and Clyde spraying away at the little invaders and watching them die.

Zoe and Blackberry, the two cats, are wondering around looking for new places to explore.





It's really quiet here. Maybe too quiet...
