While poking around the shops in Austin, there were a lot of opportunities to pick up little Texas tchotchkes. I'm not a fan of trinkets, but there were a few I thought about picking up...
...but I couldn't do it. Texas had never been the best run state in the union, but since George W Bush, I've watched the state go from badly run to a moustache-twirling-evil-cackling villain to women, LGBT folks and even secular education.
I'm known at work and among friends for being a very proud Texan. The honest truth is. I haven't been very proud as of late. And home is no longer really home anymore.
