At one point this week, Brandon Fugal handed me a first-edition copy of A Christmas Carol—one of my favorite books. I leafed through the pages of that red leather book as starry-eyed as though I were a teenager backstage at a Backstreet Boys concert circa 1999.
I love New Mexico. My wife and I took a hot-air balloon ride in Albuquerque on one vacation. It was one of my favorite adventures. I also love Arizona and Utah (stunning national parks.) I think I am a desert rat at heart, currently living on the too-humid-for-me East Coast.
I love the desert, one of the reasons we live in Utah! But I do miss the humidity. My lips and hands are cracking something horribly right now and down here in NM it's so dry that breathing kind of feels like choking.
My wife struggles with the dryness, but it doesn't affect me. I feel energized. But the pollen and humidity in North Carolina are my nemesises. LOL! They sap my energy. And I will be sneezing and have itchy eyes for the next few weeks. Opposites...
