So when we first moved from Albuquerque, I was sad to go. As I’m now realizing, the real reason I was sad was because I would miss my friends. Turns out, there’s really nothing about the city that I miss.
This last visit into town brought all kinds of nice blood pressure raising events.
Most of you who know me understand that I’m not a morning person. So when I clicked the keyless entry button on the keychain to get into the car, I thought it was odd that the horn beeped a few times, but didn’t think much of it. I sunk into the driver’s seat, threw my laptop bag into the passenger seat, and then I started the car. I felt a draft and thought to myself, why would I have left the windows down?!? Then I looked over at the window and saw this…
It had rained hard throughout the night, so the vehicle was damp inside too. Luckily the window hadn’t been totally smashed out.
And if that “Welcome to Albuquerque” behavior isn’t enough to make you hate that place, maybe driving to work every freaking morning and facing this might be enough to chase you away.
Someone is bound to go postal one of these days.
Colorado…..much, much better.
Wow! ^sux^
I had a smash and grab one time when I parked downtown to see an evening show at the Kimo.
Off and on, I lived 14 yrs in Albq. Lots of good things, and enough bad things to make be glad to now live a bit further south.
Keep it cool in Colo!
d/\h
That sucks! I feel for you. Had it happen to me once in K.C. Was pissed for years.
Hey Dave, it’s been ages! Great to hear from you! Not surprised to hear about youru Kimo experience, sorry! Mike, will be pissed for years, I’m sure, but not as pissed as if we still lived there, right Matt?
