Yes ladies and gentlemen the highly anticipated second version of 'A holiday trilogy' is now upon you...buckle up!
Well I had several things I wanted to talk about in this post so I thought and thought and then I thought some more and then I finally found a way to tie them together. With colors, not just any colors but two colors that seem to dominate the following subjects.
Red or Green?
If you're from New Mexico or have spent any period of time there you probably already have an answer for this question but considering that some of you have no idea what I'm talking about, I'll explain. I knew I was home when someone asked me "Red or Green?" They of course are talking about what kind of chile I wanted on/in my enchiladas. It is a great phrase cause when I hear it I know I'm home, cause it's the only place I've ever heard it (screw that texmex crap!).
So if you are a half evolved primate and haven't figure it out by now I was lucky enough to go home for the holiday weekend. It couldn't have come at a better time, as you could tell from previous posts I was getting worn down and a little frustrated but the break that the 5 oh 5 provided was much needed. Now I'm back to "full strength" and ready for 2008.
Another awesome thing that happened to me was two weekends ago I met Pat Green (keeping with the color theme). Some of you may know I am a huge Pat Green fan, probably due to the influence of one Ronald Bowron. I got to see him at Billy Bob's Texas in Fort Worth and it was a great show, he probably played for an hour and 45 minutes...awesome. Afterward he went to sign autographs and take pictures and so I ran over to stand in line but to my dismay about 200 people had the same idea. So I waited but I finally met him and took a picture with him. By the way his favorite song is Carry On.
And last but not least a good friend of a lot of people ended up in the hospital this weekend. We went to see him and he is doing fine but he did have a lot of blood (RED, see I kept the color theme) on his hospital bed sheets. I'll spare the details, but he'll be fine. We love you Spike! Get well soon!

Stay tuned for Version 3.0...it will be a visual wonderland...maybe. Oh yeah in the airport on the way back to Dallas I got a breakfast burrito and once again I was asked "Red or Green?". I was feeling crazy, I told her "christmas".
