Today, El Paso's having a dust storm. I spent part of my growing up in Los Angeles County...I know what smog is...this is different...even the air inside the hotel and restaurants smells like dirt. It's not a bad thing, just different.

...or at least that's what I thought before I went to Austin-Hall Boots and heard Thomas Arditti's stories about old people blowing and tumbling across the streets of downtown.

Yikes! No kiddin'!

I've been to J.B. Hill and Austin-Hall today, with some yummy steak tacos stuck in between. Tonight Laura Neitzel and I are having dinner with Nevena Christi from Rocketbuster...should be all kinds of fun.
