it's true about the state, it's boring. but did you live in albuquerque? it's nice once you know people. of course is not a great city but it's pleasant. and don't you live in bumfuck florida anyway? come on...!!
denver. hm. i didn't know that. i might drive there just to verify. only 6 hours away!

walla walla? is that a fish? no. a robot? where is that?
anyway denver, huh?
about burque, as i was saying above, it's interesting, but it's not... what is the word... it's not a "great city". you know, if you like great cities, this isn't one. however, it's
nice. and because it's smaller, it's easier to be king of the cage. ha ah ha.
we live in the university neighborhood which is pretty awesome. in fact it's probably the best neighborhood i've ever lived in. well no, i did live in georgetown (dc) which is awesome, but fuck if i could afford anything. and when i lived near U street it was a crack neighborhood and now it's luxury condos & shit. so again no.
but i'll tell you what i like about here: i can walk or bike to everywhere i need to go. in other words, the neighborhood is pretty self-contained, there is little you need outside here: a brewery, the occasional visit to the (yuck) mall, a restaurant in a different neighborhood might require you to get in a car. but there are buses running near my house. the airport is 15 minutes away, the train station is 2 miles away, there's a baseball stadium ive never been to but it's within walking distance, and the best part is that the state gives me free money. so i am biased.
