nova, pilar and cindigo new years 2007 Originally uploaded by cindigodotcom.
I’m in San Diego with my mom. We drove here early to look for a place for her for the winter. It was basically the plan all along, but we did it a little sooner. She found a really cute house in an area that [...]

I feel like I should update because I might loose all the hilarity that ensued this week. Or I might loose all the drama, pain and irritation that I will spin into hilarity to make it easier to take.
The highlight of this week came last night as my mom drove back from dinner and [...]

I have taken to calling Andy (he suggested it) “Your tallness”. As in, “would you like something to drink your tallness?”
While we were driving this morning, his tallness pressed the eject button on the cd player in the Cadillac. There was nothing in it. He said, “look, this car even has a sobriety tester”. The [...]

I don’t think that in all of the years I’ve had this blog I’ve written one political thing. I’m 36 years old and have never voted. The candidates (both sides), the debates and the coverage have always disgusted me.
Monday I’m registering as a Republican and voting for Ron Paul.
If you think I’m not a [...]

We’re back in Vegas. I’m laying in the puffy RV bed waiting for the heater to heat. The Cadillac as you can see is in desperate need of a car wash but otherwise made it through the trip with flying colors.
Vlad and Andy have been plotting, planning and scheming all [...]

New Years is coming up. Usually I think long and hard about my resolution and make it a year long intention rather than a strict “lose ten pounds” or “stop being irritated when people crowd you in lines”. For the past four years or so these directions have just come up naturally. This year, not [...]

Denver!

*Please disregard this personal message. Or, don’t if you want to come to Lebowski Fest.
Portia,
I can’t find your email address.
Lebowski fest….in Chicago.

The road has been cleared and we’ll be on our way in an hour or so. Yesterday we figured out how to upload video from the phone. Not great quality but I think a good trade off for the ability to always have a tiny video camera with me. Here’s a boring test video of [...]

We’ve made it down the mountain. Twenty minutes away from where I took this picture there was no sign of snow anywhere.

I’m glad we got snowed in. We’re staying here for the night. The road is open so we can leave for Denver in the morning.

We are stuck in Pagosa Springs, CO. We left Farmington, NM this morning and ran into weather in the mountains. An avalanche closed the road that we need so we’re hanging out in a coffee house waiting to see if we’re going to rent a mountain cabin for the night or be able to push [...]

Last night we went out with fellow Couchsurfer Lynn, her partner Katie and Lynn’s two grandkids to The River of Lights in the Albuquerque Botanical Gardens. It was a cool thing that we probably wouldn’t have done on our own.
We’re in the car on our way to Farmington New Mexico to [...]

I just wish my phone cam was good enough to take a picture of this when it was lit up in the dark.
Happy Birthday Jesus,
With love from Albuquerque.

We’re on the road to Albuquerque. We just at breakfast at the one of the only towns in between Amarillo and Albuquerque. Last night we stayed with Steve. We were his first couchsurfers and we had a blast. We brought over a case of Shiner Bock and the guys drank it sitting on the floor [...]

We’ve stopped for the night in Amarillo at Steve’s house. We were in Norman Oklahoma last night but didn’t have internet. A call to tech support tonight took care of the problem. We had a really fun time with Ana in Norman. No funny stories or hilarity but great Thai food and an evening of [...]

We’re leaving Little Rock today. Who knew that Little Rock was so awesome. We had a great time here with Ivy and Chris. I can’t even tell you which highlight of the trip was the best. We got in a day early and Andy hung out and recharged with pizza and tv while I went [...]
