re: NO NO NO, getting out asap - 1/30/2014 -
4/3/2014Where the hell did you hang out?!! Sounds like you only hung out in the S.W. part o Albq. That's mostly where the type of people you described here in your VERY SCATHING open letter.
Although, I agree on some of your points about stoners and drinkers and tattoos and shaved heads, It is not nearly as bad as you say it is. You make it sound as if ALL native Albuquerqueans are the way you described. Well, not so! Don't forget. there are lots of Mexicans who have taken over many parts o New Mexico- especially, in Abq. So they may be part of what you've been "hangin' out" with.
You chose to hang out with the people you talked about so, take some responsibility for your actions and words.

I'm home! -
4/3/2014Glad to be back home where I belong! I moved away from Albuquerque, N.M. 21 years ago to Denver, CO where I lived for 18 years. I made a BIG mistake and quit my job that I loved and moved to Los Angeles, CA. I hated it there If you were a middle- class type person, and you moved to a place like Los Angeles, you suddenly became impoverished due to the extremely high cost of living. Yes, I ended up living in the most ghetto-est city. I'm not racist but I have to admit... I absolutely felt as if I were living in some foreign country- Mexico, to be exact!
Blaahhhhh!
The cost of living in Albuquerque is so much better! I feel richer having moved back here- I'm even able to freely spend and save money, finally! I love Albuquerque and I'm glad to be back.
