My Quest to Become a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader.....

Our life has suddenly become very harried and frenzied! We decided to relocate to the Big D within the next few weeks. Why??!! Because I decided I want to become a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader! It is has always been a dream of mine and before I turn 30, er, uh, I mean, 40....oh, crap, 50 later this year, I want to give it a go. So off we go!! The Dallas Cowboys definitely won't know what hit them when I take the field!!

While I'm on my life's quest to become a 50 year old cheerleader, I decided I would try to list the other things commonly associated with Texas. This is what I have so far:

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Lone Star State
The Alamo
Texas Hold'em (a poker game for those of you who might not know what this is)
Texas Longhorn Cattle

Now, there are probably so many other things, but since it is nearing midnight and my brain has reached the limits of its ability for the day, I just can't think of any others to add to the list. However, if you know of a few things, please feel free to add them in the comments section.

Oh, one other thing I thought of. Texas had some team that tried to beat Alabama in the National Championship last year. Guess that counts for something! :-)

I'm just sayin',

The Future of Farm Town

If you are an active member of Facebook, you are more than likely familiar with, on an intimate basis, a game called Farm Town. Farm Town is a virtual farm. You plow your land, plant your crops and reap the rewards (coins) of selling those crops at harvest time. You even have the ability to "prostitute" yourself in the village market by offering to harvest other farmers' crops. You can sell your farm for larger farms, purchase silos, waterwells, logs, barrels, pigs, chickens, roosters, goats....you get the picture. You beg your "farming" friends to send you gifts of animals and trees so that you will not have to make these expensive purchases yourself. After all, you are saving your coins so that you can buy that farming mansion and pond you've been lusting after on the neighboring farm. However, the future of Farm Town may be compromised. My son called earlier to let me know Facebook had a new virtual farm game called Farm Ville. He's at level

Monica, the Czar

I hope most of you are keeping up. The Real Magnolias stories are not going to be consecutive posts as I do have other things going on in my life that I feel the need to write about. Not alot mind you, but other things nonetheless. :-) In the previous post, I mentioned Monica, the Czar. Monica had a nasty habit of being the mom and trying to keep the rest of us from ever having any fun. Thank goodness she was never successful! However, one thing she was quite successful at was making new friends. I use this term loosely as it was usually people she would pass on the street. Monica felt it was her place to not only be the Czar in our lives, but also in lives of strangers. For Monica never met a person she didn't take the opportunity to talk to. When she would see someone that she thought she would be able to strike up a conversation with, she would stop them to talk. Said conversation went something like this: Monica, the Czar: "Hey, do you have the internet?&quo

Revolution!

In 1968, the Beatles wrote a song entitled “Revolution”…which is the theme of my blog today. I believe it’s time for a good, old-fashioned revolution, or at the very least, a mediocre civil war between the conformists and non-conformists! You see, I’m a non-conformist…I refuse to go along with the crowd…a rebel per se! I march to the beat of my own drum. If I were born in a different time period, I would have been riding astride when all the other ladies were riding side-saddle. I would have been on the battlefield reloading muskets, wearing britches, while all the other ladies were taking care of the wounded. We have a president in office who has touted ‘change, change, change’ ever since he became the democratic nominee for president. However, his big plans for change have done nothing but flop like a fish on dry land. Everyone wants change, but we want change for the good of all, not for the good of those who choose to avoid work, moral ethics and abuse my tax dollars. I’m ready for

a Sweet Life Saga
