march 31 2011

Things that I don't dislike about Oklahoma:
  1. The innocence regarding snow storms- can be kind of irritating but typically accounts for many days off
  2. The remnant- there are still people here from college that I enjoy, including my brother
  3. Jeremy's football season- it had to grow on me, and it has major downsides, but watching him coach both amuses me and makes me proud (this probably isn't confined to Oklahoma though)
  4. Familiarity- people at Halal Mart and ZamZam and other various places know us, which is neat
  5. Rain storms are so rare that when they happen, it brightens my whole day
  6. The dirt is red. Weird yet cool.
  7. The sunsets are actually very incredible.
  8. Birds trying to fly south make it as far as Oklahoma and realize it's warm enough to hang out for a while and they are everywhere. Also weird yet cool.

This isn't the PROS list for staying here. It's actually one of the pros that Jeremy and I came up with: We do have a few compliments for Oklahoma.

Which is good, because as of last Thursday, we've decided to stay here for another year.
