RE: New to Steemit!

What's up?! I came down to the DFW area and I love it. The weather is awesome! It gets cold, but it doesn't get down to freezing in the winter! I'm from a small town in Southern Illinois, so it's more expensive than there. Rent is pricey. It's cheaper than Chicago, that's for sure. I've been to Austin a few times and I reeeeaaaaaalllllllyyyy like it down there. No state income tax is cool, but tax on beer and liquor is way higher. Not to mention Texas isn't billions of dollar in debt like Illinois, so that's another plus!

You dont like the cold and how you take a shower sometimes and it freezes your hair like gel? Thats one of my favorite past times. I am from the suburbs kinda big kinda small. I hung out at places that were small. Never southern illinois only been in the middle. I am glad you got rid of the illinois the place has been really annoying lately with high prices and everything going to absolute shit. I am glad you found a home down there in texas. You must import your beer from another state huh? Just like cigs up here hahaha. Tell me about it were all stuck. We will eventually get out soon enough!

Haha! I've never really been a cold weather guy. I have a couple of people that I trade beer with, so it's not all that bad. I just miss out on a hell of a lot more limited release stuff than I used to! When I smoked, I would try to make sure to buy enough cigarettes before I went up to Chicago. I made the mistake of having to pay $15 for a pack once. That was like 6 years ago though. How much does a pack run now?
