i really dont like the rules in new mexico

soooo we came to new mexico yesterday and well... it was a 450 mile drive.. and let me be the first to say that it wasn't all to bad. beats the hell out of cali roads. which beat the hell out of you.... ugg

so leaving arizona made me think a little bit about how small the states really are. i mean from one side to the other arizona is only about 380 miles wide. i mean thats hardly anything right?....
ok so when we got out of AZ i was pretty happy. things were good and all was shinning(the sun). thheennn we got to the damn border check point. now for all you that haven't been to one where you actully have to like show your drivers log or anything of that nature... it sucks oh and you can get fined heavy if you dont have things in order....
well heres my little story.
so we pull into new mexico DOT check stop and i get up to the dudelyness and hand him my stuff (mind you these people assume that you have done this many times before and will always have it wating for them ) so i hand him everything that the last check point (in arizona) asked for. he looks at it and then asks for my log book..... i know im in trouble.... this isn't good... shit.
so i hand it to him and in an instant his face changes to discucst and just wasn't liking things the way he was seeing them. so he takes all my stuff and tells me to go inside. well i knew i had to go inside any ways because oddly you have to have a permit to cross new mexico.... yeah i dont get it either... anyways, i go in there with steve and we wait a few minutes fearing what is to come for us.. and how big of a fine it was going to be... things were NOT looking good.. so the guy opens the book and reads to me all the things i am doing wrong. well everything. everything is wrong in that damnbook all because i never got proper instruction on how to fill it out even after asking. grated i was showed a few thing but nothing all to amazing for sure.
so he looks at it, tells me i suck, and then says " violation of the law" im thinking nothing good is coming my way for sure. so hes pecking on the compy and inputing numbers that i can only assume are fines and then i start praying that the comp would fail and it wouldn't go though. just hoping that all of this would just go away.. more pecking, more numbers. more praying........ uug.. i hate this... then a shine of light come out, he says " i thought we fixed these computers" my eyes are bright with hope and i pray some more " bring their computers down!!!!" soon after he walks away in failure but with no words to say that we are off the hook. so fear is still in the blood of my veins... we go to the next window. we get our permit. we leave...... thank you god. damn that was close.

sorry for the run on. im good at those.

oh then we went to las vegas, NM and all was well. got the to the hotel in this small town. cute town though. and got to the hotel. super 8..... its realllly nice. beds are uber comfy.

then its lights out. long day tomorrow.

i'll tell you about the show today a little later. right now i have to sleep.
