a lone star state

i'm in texas- austin, texas. i haven't been here long enough to form a real opinion about the city, but i have been having fun. seeing kim and meeting her gentleman friend has been great; we sang karaoke with a live band last night, and today all i did was drink coffee. yeah vacation! i'm here for about a week, then it's off to the punk rock bowling tournament in las vegas. i love drinking beer in random cities. i was fortunate enough to find a plane flight to austin which was cheaper than the bus. i can't complain about missing three days on the greyhound. after this, it's all greyhound all the time.
