la salade de kermit

I just had to share this.
A friend of mine found a frog in her salad today.

for all of my Texas friends

Especially those who have moved away (like me).

My friend Joe told me about this song which I absolutely love now. If you have a chance, check it out - "Ohio (Come Back to Texas)" by Bowling for Soup. It makes me smile and wiggle in my seat. It was also fun looking at different websites for lyrics. It was always obvious when the person who was transcribing WASN'T from Texas, because he would mishear lyrics that he would know better if he were from Texas.

She said she needed a break -
a little time to think -
but then she went to Cleveland
with some guy named Leelan
that she met at the bank.

There's nothing wrong with Ohio
except the snow and the rain.
I really like Drew Carey
and I'd love to see the Rock 'n' Rock Hall of Fame.

So when you're done doing whatever
and when you're through doing whoever,
you know Denton County will be right here waiting for you...

Come back to Texas.
It's just not the same since you went away.
Before you lose your accent
and forget all about the Lone Star State.
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
and I've got every slow dance saved.
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway.

I think I made a mistake.
It's not that easy to take.
She went to make a deposit
then she cleaned out her closet.
Guess I'll sit here and wait

For her to come back home (I wish she'd come back home).
It shouldn't take very long (so long, so long).
I bet she misses the sunrise
and Mrs. Baird's fruit pies, but I could be wrong.

So when you're done doing whatever
and when you're through doing whoever,
you know Denton County will be right here waiting for you...

Come back to Texas.
It's just not the same since you went away.
I bet you missed your exit
and drove right on through the Lone Star State.
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
and I've got every slow dance saved.
Besides the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway.

Troy Aikman wants you back.
Willie Nelson wants you back.
NASA wants you back.
And the Bush twins want you back.
Pantera wants you back.
And Blue Bell wants you back.

I got a premonition.
I'm taking a petition
and the whole state's gonna sign.

Come back to Texas.
It's just not the same since you went away.
Before you lose your accent
and forget all about the Lone Star State.
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
and I've got every slow dance saved...

You would be surprised how much you affected my life. I think about you all the time. You left so many people behind who loved you dearly. I miss my crafty buddy.
