That's a LOT more than me, Loe! I only have 2 aunts and 1 uncle, but I have A TON of cousins (like 2nd, 3rd, and 4th cousins). Only 3 1st cousins and only 1 that I am actually close to. we have this strange branch of our family that is like the black sheep. Quite bizarre.

Cool, where were ya?

No, my parents live in Oklahoma, and I went home for a few weeks to visit them. Actually just arrived back in Texas today.

OK, really? I was born there!

Well, summer '07 I was in Durango for a few days. We wented a condo and stayed there for a while... But we've been all over the state. We take road trips ever summer, and I've been out there snowboarding as well. I'd love to live there some day.

Born in Bethany, OK, adopted when I was 3 days old and was back in CO by the time I was 4 days old. Birth mother is from Texas.

Oh wow! Where?

I've actually never been to Durango. I guess I just don't make it that far southwest. I live kinda in the middle of the state, slightly east.

Nice to meet a fellow Okie... even if you only lived there for 3 days

Loe, you still around?

Hehe...ya, my parents and my husband all call me an Okie when they're all together 'cuz they're all from Texas! And they don't mean it in a good way...well, they're only joking. Meanies

Oh trust me, I know how that is! I get teased all the time. In fact, a few of my girlfriends came up to spend New Years Eve with me in Oklahoma, and they were making Oklahoma jokes the entire time since they are from Texas.

yeah, a little lost though

I don't know specifics to the geography of USA, you know?

I was thinking I'd like to know a fellow chilean fan

Isn't that great? Where are ya from in OK? I used to say I was from Oklahoma City, but then I found out I was actually born in Bethany. Apparently, it's basically the same thing.

One of my best friends' mother is from Chile!

ah, sorry. Let's see... Oklahoma is almost smack dab in the middle of the US. Texas is south of Oklahoma... Colorado is west of Oklahoma.

let's see... do I know anyone from Chile? *thinks* no... sure don't. Well, except for you

You know what's funny? CO actually borders OK. Barely, but still. I didn't know that until like 5 years ago. Guess I didn't pay enough attention to a map.

She doesn't happen to be a Bones fan... is she? LOL

Here in Chile we say there's at least one chilean in every city...

LOL... Yes, the panhandle touches. There's nothing there though. lol

Actually, I MADE her a Bones fan!!! I lent her my seasons 1 & 2 DVDs and she's hooked. But she only wants to watch them on DVD, so she's gonna buy season 3 herself.

Thanks on the geography lesson, deb now I see why there's a relation between Texas teasing Okies!

well... guess she doesn't fit my plans anyway. I think I'll make a fan out of a friend. That's the best solution.

Step 1: Buy DVDs.
Step 2: Burn them with all 4 seasons of Bones.
Step 3: Lend them to my friend.
Step 4: Enjoy the results

Yes... there is a huge rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas. Especially between college football teams.

Oh... and that explains it further
