So, I decided to take a break from the wonderful weather of the Pacific Northwest to come hang out with the fam in Texas while Doug is gone. Here are just a few of the things I have missed while living in Oak Harbor...cue sentimental music...
1) MEXICAN FOOD!- Ok, I have had Mexican food in California, New Mexico, Florida, and Arizona and I still think that the Mexican food is the best in Texas. I don't know if they add crack to Pappasitos' fajitas or what but Tex Mex blows all other states attempt at Mexican food away...
2) Warm weather and SUN! Do you know how long its been since I've seen the sun?! (Shout out to all my Washington friends cuz you know what I'm talking about..) I got off the plane in Houston and was blinded by this big, yellow orb in the sky. Then I remembered that there is this thing in nature called "sun". I have missed it dearly.
3) People who wave at you for letting them over while merging in traffic. Thanks Texas for being so polite! (And for driving like crazy...)
and finally.....
4) Not getting crazy looks everytime I say "ya'll". =)
So, in conclusion, I would like to say thanks to the state of Texas for existing. You keep on trucking you wonderful southern state and hopefully someday Doug and I will return (No earlier than 2014..we have a Navy commitment to fulfill after all!)
Are you in town until the reunion? Give me a call... nobody said we had to wait until the 24th to hang out :)
