there's no place like home

I’m really enjoying things out here in California, but I make no secret of the fact that I miss Texas. I wish I could explain the complex mix of emotions that make up this homesickness, but it is not something that can fully be described with words. Also considering I’m in the middle of writing a research paper and studying for midterms, my brain is not up to composing a lengthy narrative. Instead, I present a rather short and incomplete list of things I miss about my home.

family and friends
protected left turns
Whataburger
open spaces
Kroger
Big XII sports coverage
convenient parking
Tex-Mex
drive-thru banking
Walgreens
central time

ah man. Have you had Chevy's? soo good. It's from over that way. but you know, all that stuff is material, and in the ultimate scheme of things, God's bigger and we are so small in his huge universe. I posted some pics that you need to look at and read from a concert I went to. the speaker used them and it hit me hard.

While I really do not miss Texas, I can definately understand the mention of "protected left turns." It's like the LA city planners don't know there are now left turn arrow lights. I mean come on, this is suposed to be a society with advanced technology!
