Aggieland once more....

Took a trip to Aggieland this weekend. Christine was dunking her ring, and she invited me to come. I was glad I did. It was good to see all the young people again. I realized how much I miss that place.

There are no good texas country radio stations in Austin. Believe it or not, the live music capitol of the world does not have a decent country radio station. Now as far as NPR, classic rock, and 80's music, the radio stations here kick ass, but they are sadly lacking on the Robert Earl Keen, Pat Green, and Corey Morrow. I realized this while driving into CS at 8:00 saturday night, and 92.5 played Corey Morrow's "Texas Time Traveling Machine" I miss two stepping at the Hall on thursday nights. Perhaps I'll have to drag some of my new friends out here in Austin.

On my way back, I heard my favorite song by Willie Nelson - "I'd have to be crazy (to fall out of love with you)" Erin never liked Willie. Maybe that should have been a sign...

So I got drunk off a 12 pack of Modelo with a bunch of undergrads on saturday night. It was fun. I felt really old, but it was good to see the Hart Hall 4th floor A-ramp crew again. They almost didn't recognize me with my new haircut. I stopped at Walmart on my way in and bought a set of dominos and we played bones after everyone had left. It was almost like old times. Except I didn't get screwed by the 6-5, which was nice.

I was supposed to go to sbisa with Vince in the morning, but he didn't answer his phone, and I got tired of waiting for him, so I went by myself. It was everything that I thought it could be, a cornicopia of goodness. I gorged myself on fruit, bacon, breakfast tacos, grits, and anything else I could pile on my plate. Later on in the day, (as I suspected) it came back to haunt me, and I became re-acquainted with the MSC bathrooms, but it was still worth it.

I'll finish this post later....

try 107.1 KGSR. It isn't strictly what you're looking for, but they play lots of Texas stuff. It was the first place I ever heard Robert Earl Keene.
