Does this sound like you? Well, the deal is that I have been writing Latino Autoblogs and moving in to my new house like it's going out of style. I have had very little time to relax, let alone work on this crap for free.
Here's something interesting: I went to Vail to visit my aunt and uncle yesterday, and we were talking about my recent move. Apparently, they had asked some friends of theirs from Denver about Nederland, and were informed that it is a commune. That's news to me. I'm not even sure if I know what a commune is, exactly, apart from the obvious cult-like stereotypes. Remember the Shakers? That was like a religious-type commune, but I assume the Denver-ites were referring to communes of the hippie sort, like this:
This is funny to me, because it shows the way that city folks think about mountain folks. I'm not sure what would give them the idea that it was a commune, let alone convince them to share it as fact, but the only thing I can think of is the fact that we have a grocery co-op in town. I don't know how it works, because I just go to the regular grocery store, but from the name I would gather that it is some sort of "co-operative" or "communal" organization.
