Hiya. My brain is trying to claw its way out of my skull again. Why does my brain hate me?

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Why does my brain hate me?
For the same reason the upper right part of my face has been trying to fall off. I suspect a cabal.
Hullo, darlings.
Why does my brain hate me?
You make it work too hard.
why does my brain hate me?
MY brain hates me because of the altitude (tiny come-and-go headache, a little shortness of breath). Know why? 'Cause I'm IN MOUNTAINS!!!! I's in the ROCKIES!!!!!!! t /taunty taunter
Say, anybody know the altitude of Joshua Tree? I'm guessing it's lower than where I am now because I never got the breath thing.

Not sure. Nearly passed out reading in Taos once, though, so I hear you on altitude adjustment.
It's not too bad. I'm only recognizing the discomfort as altitude because I had a hell of a time it in Peru. If I hadn't, I'd just think I was tired or coming down with something.
Either JTree isn't as high or the dry air counteracts some of the discomfort. SLC is amazing though. We're walking through Parker's little neighborhood and if you glance up-- snow capped mountain! I just can't get over it.
Is it as beautiful as it's always looked in her writing?
Betsy, its AMAZING. Down town is SwitzerlandClean. Her neighborhood is so sweet and human scaled and walkable and has wonderful markets.
Now I want to go to Taos, but not faint. In Cusco we had coca leaves to chew. None of those in Utah.
Actually, Trudy's in the Wasatch Mountains, a sub-range of the Rockies. Amy's neighborhood is actually in what passes for foothills in a mountain range that was once the border of a massive inland sea. Instead of actual hills, we have the former shorelines as benches on the mountains. In the sections where the lower slopes aren't covered in houses, you can see two or three distinct levels.
I believe Salt Lake is very close to a mile in altitude, so I'm not at all surprised Trudy's having altitude adjustment problems. Joshua Tree is probably half-way to sea level. I know the very long and steep Virgin River Gorge is between Joshua Tree and Salt Lake. Our area is definitely high desert region. If it weren't for the rain that's settling on us for the next several days, I'd expect Trudy to have low-humidity problems, as well.
In addition, Amy's in a gorgeous neighborhood of old trees and Arts & Crafts bungalows.
Trudy, have you been to Sugarhouse yet? Has she shown you the Blue Boutique and the naughty stores?
