It's late so we think we're funny

Alright, so it may only be midnight....but when your child only let you have 3 hours of sleep the night before....EVERYTHING is funny!!!

THE 5 BEST AND WORST REASONS TO LIVE IN THE BURQUE! (albuquerque for you gringos)

WORST -

  1. Old ladies will drop the f-bomb frequently.
  2. If it snows a quarter of a inch schools close, Lowes runs out of snow shovels and salt, and it has all melted by noon.
  3. Strangers will knock on your door in the middle of the night and ask you for cheese, then get mad when you say, "No, cheese is expensive, but i have an orange."
  4. You will get robbed your first week of living here. (If the person who stole my bike is reading this, can i please have it back...not that I'm unhappy with my used Panasonic bike swap steal? Seriously, they make bikes.)
  5. No matter what neighborhood you live in someone will get murdered on your street! Trust us, we have experinced this twice (hence why the bike theft goes unchecked).

BEST -

  1. Great bike trails....so we have heard.
  2. The food is unique and amazing. If you ever visit, you must try the GREEN CHILE. The state question is red or green, always go with green!
  3. The ballon fiesta. Google it.
  4. Julia Roberts and Val Kilmer live in the next town over!!!!
  5. This one is obvious. They filmed WILD HOGS here! We're hoping the sequel makes it back to the Burque!

So, if you're planning a visit or are lucky enough to move here, we hope our little glimpse into Albuquerque life will help!

ehhhh... I guess it's cool that Wild Hogs was filmed there.... do me a favor though. If they end up filming the sequel there, have Sterling throw a branch or a stick into spokes of John Travolta'a motorcycle.
