Rick just got back from his Chump Trip and he bought me a present.
It's a book called "Speak Texan, in 30 minutes or less" by Lou Hudson.
Guess I better get started!

In Red-Pen Form
This is Rick's perception of me:
At least I don't have a big round stomach like the rest of his drawings!

Texan Vocab
My expanded "Texan Vocabulary" so far...
"Y'all" as opposed to "you guys"
"I'm fixin' to..." instead of the ever popular "I'm going to"
"I seen him..." Oh, that's weird. I thought I SAW him, but I guess I was mistaken.
"Thanks" as in "Rick thanks I'm gonna use that hula hoop, but he's wrong"
Everything else is just spoken at a much slower pace 'round here.
That's a skill this fast-talkin' Yankee is far from mastering.
