NEBRASKA CHOLO

Well boys it's official. I'm bound for the Midwest, fly over country. Reptilian chemical trails in the sky look like God unzipping his trousers.

But I'm taking my 21 yo girl. My cat Sloppy Jo. And my chihuahuas Fefe and Paco. And that's all I need really. I'm a frugal man. Black coffee. Beans and toast. A can beer, a pole, and a fishing hole. Home is where you make it. A bed is where you lay your head. My best pair of jeans, about 12 years old, finally ripped recently so I cut them at the knee and now they are my best pair of shorts until the crotch falls thru.

I stepped out at 10 am today in Houston. The sweat squeezing out my back and builds in to a bead before my dog's eager piss could sprinkle the grass. It's 58* right now in Nebraska. I think about how nice a sweater would feel even tho I have no more clothes to remove in this brutal Houston 8 months heatwave.

My city of Houston, borned and raised, has over 6 times the population of the entire state of Nebraska. Our head count can only be rivaled by Nebraskan ears of corn and grains of wheat.

Wish me luck boys. I'm open to any advice you may have for us. I'll keep my head low, politeness to all, never wanting to draw unwanted attention to me or mine. I had this serious talk with my girl also. Nebraska ain't exactly the melting pot we are accustomed to splashing around in.

Whether successes or failures my transparency will remain consistent. I'm making a round trip in a few days and my target is 14 days until I'm punching the clock. Hopefully my tiny boxeo brain doesn't get rattled. Cheers!
