Lyle Lovett sings:
That's right you're not from Texas
That's right you're not from Texas
That's right you're not from Texas
But Texas wants you anyway
Though I've been in Texas for going on 8 years now, and have been frequently heard to say, "Y'all" and even "All y'all" now and then...and despite earning my Honorary Citizenship in the Empire of Texas (Yes, I even have the certificate to prove it!) ...there is one right of passage I have yet to make.

| Official Texan Certificate |
I am almost afraid to put it in writing, I do not want my Texan Card revoked! I have never been to Friday Night Lights. Honestly, the last football game I attend was the Homecoming game my senior year of high school and y'all can just imagine how long ago that was!
However, that changes tonight. Tonight I will be sitting in my brand new stadium seat, that sports the school logo, watching the first football game of the season. I will be wearing my new "I am with the band" t-shirt and experiencing what all true Texans seem to love...football on Friday nights.
PS. Sure glad Lyle was right. ;-)
