Rock keep on growing it

the guy working next to me blamed me for this trend. Granted…I could be considered "hipsterish" in the Midwest....but I've had a beard since 2007.

Fresh eggs and chorizo wrapped in a warm flour tortilla make any day a little brighter, amirite?
Of course, if I lived in Austin like you, I'd probably go to Biscuits & Groovy a few days a week and end up weighing 400 pounds.

My friend I visited in Breck is from Texas and he does a slow cooked pinto beans deal… salt pork, jalapenos, lots and lots of time. We made some juevos rancheros one fine morning. Well... afternoon. First breakfast that day leftover steak and eggs. "Brunch" after everyone else shook it off was juevos. That kind of food never gets old.

I just watched the footage of the 9/11 attacks again on Youtube with Tommy, he was totally unaware of it despite having visited NY three times (I just assumed he knew for some reason). He was absolutely dumb struck and left the room, I have watched a few more mini documentaries and I can honestly say that I still cannot fully comprehend the horror of that day.

I was living in New Jersey then. It was a very strange time.
-
I flew to LA a few weeks later, even there the atmosphere was really strange, a country in mourning and still on high alert.

I haven't been to ground zero yet. I wonder what it feels like. I definitely felt something when I went into the room at Parkland where Kennedy died.

My brother in law bailed on a meeting in one of the towers that morning. Thank god.
-
^ Jesus.. that's insane.
I still cant watch that footage. Knowing that there was so much death in that very instant (and sometime afterwards) overwhelms me.
Although geographically I am far removed from these incidents, I have a very clear memory of seeing the 2nd tower hit live on the news late at night here in Aust.. It was surreal and deeply sad to say the least.

I had a client scheduled for an afternoon meeting in one of the buildings (at Cantor Fitzgerald, which was relatively wiped out) and she called me from the street wondering what was going on, why it was cordoned off…and she still couldn't understand the severity because no words could describe it, and she was just on the street a few blocks away and couldn't see anything. This was just after I watched the 2nd tower get hit (I live 2 hours south, Philadelphia, and work in NYC often). My three children at the time were ages 10, 12, 14. About 1pm I disconnected the cable, and put the radios away, and so for a week they only had school discussion, some internet, and print. I felt there was no reason for them to see 400 replays of it every three minutes ad infinitum. People later told me there were constant replays of jumpers, and so on. I'm still glad I shut it down for as along as I did.
