I'm only about 45 minutes outside of Austin. I thought (silly me) that it would be far enough out in the country to let me have my animals, but close in enough that there would be a more socially liberal bent. Wow .... was I wrong .... so very wrong.
People look at me like I grew horns and ate their baby when I mention that I'm a Buddhist. In fact, one (supposedly college educated woman) actually asked me why I didn't wear an orange robe, shave my head and hang around the airport banging a drum with the rest of the Buddhists.
Oh for goodness sake ... I mean, how ignorant is it possible to be?? Don't answer that, it was a rhetorical question. I know ... extremely ignorant. But, seriously, I'm now in a law suit with someone who is trying to drive me out of the area. Strange place this town I have moved to .... quite .... unique.
