Sweet tea...

So as we were on this roadtrip i made it a point to have sweet tea at even the slightest hint of thirst... this meant at every meal, at every gas stop, sometimes even getting two bottles from one store... sadly, as we got further north and further west, my tea options became more and more sparse...
Anyway, somewhere between Johnson City, TN and Memphis, i decided that i would try to make my own tea when i got back west... My friends, today is the day...

well... lemme back it up a little... yesterday, i went out and bought some tea. When i got back, my grandma looks at it and shakes her head... "whyre you buying this gringo tea? we have plenty of tea." i said, "i know...this is different, i cant use that asian stuff for this..."

(next morning)
G-ma: "whatre you doing?... Oh making your tea, huh?"
Nui: "yep...its gonna be So Good gramma!"
G-ma: "whats all this? what? youre putting sugar in it?! Who does that? are you gonna put milk in it too??"

grammas pretty zealous for unadulterated tea... guess i'll be sipping on this goodness by my lone self... :0)

New Beginnings...

I'm home.

limbo...

i been on the road for the last 6 days... i left philadelphia on saturday and will get into P-town on Monday. one thing has ended and another has yet to begin. remember that song by semisonic? Closing Time? well here's a reminder if you don't:

Closing time, Open all the doors and let you out into the world
Closing time, Turn all of the lights on over every boy and every girl
Closing time, One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or beer
Closing time, You don't have to go home but you can't stay here

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home

Closing time, Time for you to go out to the places you will be from
Closing time,This room won't be open till your brothers or your sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits I hope you have found a friend
Closing time, Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end

Closing time,Time for you to go out to the places you will be from
Closing time, Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.


i'm waiting on my new beginning all while hating the other beginning's end... i wish closing time didnt suck so bad.
