Albuquerque effectively has 3 types of people:
* Natives: The people who live in the sticks and drive big well-used pickup trucks
* Students/Hippies: People who flock around Downtown/Central. Tend to drive either a Japanese car or an ancient Volkswagen.
* Business folk: Rich Republicans who live in NE and drive spotless waxed Lexus SUVs and pick-ups.
Sadly, there is a type left out of this:
* Anyone who drives a tiny little Volvo.
As a result, it appears that the nearest place I can get a tire to replace the one I blew this morning is _Pheonix_ (A comfortable 6 hour drive away). Time to go find a man with a knack for duct tape. Current Mood: stranded Current Music: NWA -=- Straight Outta Compton |

That's a funny sound :-P Its all better now. I talked (and paid) the guy at a tire shop into getting one driven over for me, and it was here by 10 this morning! I'm all tired up. ![[User Picture Icon]](https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/22071966/742808) | | From: | memnus |

Man, and I thought just having to drive through Albequerque with no idea of where the hotel was, 10 hours after leaving Claremont, was bad enough. | | From: | avani |

That sounds worse, actually. At least I managed to get out of the snow and wobble the car back to the apartment. | | From: | avani |

I was about 2/3 of the way through your post before I realized that you weren't talking about apartment-hunting... | | From: | avani |

:-P ... my post would sound the same if I were, I'm sure, except that I live in the pompous Republican area. The student area is a cool place to visit, but I've grown rather attached to ..say .. heat, carpets, windows, etc. dylan liives in pheonix these days ![[User Picture Icon]](https://l-userpic.livejournal.com/6169042/539598) | | From: | avani |
