Have I told you that I’m on a quest to watch movies made in Oklahoma? Yeah, I am. And I’m watching one tonight. Four Sheets to the Wind. I’ll be posting a review about it soon. There’s a great line at the beginning.

Once in a while, something great happens in Oklahoma. Not often, but once in a while.

Clark, Patrick, and Tony,

Well, guys…I don’t know what to say. It’s not like I won, but you posted a link to my blog, so in a way I did. Thank you for making my stat counter soar higher than the day GEORGE! declared his love for me. Truly a special day.

I guess that being considered in the running for one day of your Hot Girl a Day in the Month of May is…better than being on your list of top Oklahoma embarrassments and for that, I thank you. I’ll do my best to stay off the latter list.

I’m sure most people would respond to something like this in the following way, or at least something that closely resembles it:

However, that was not my response upon seeing the post. I’m just glad that I had my wits about me at the time and was able to capture this very special moment, 5:25 am Friday morning, when I read your post and saw my name beside such wonders as Jenni Carlson and Maggie Carlo:

Sincerely,
Almost a HGADITMOM

Woo! Oklahoma City is getting the Sonics!

NEW YORK — Welcome to the big leagues, Oklahoma City.

With a 28-2 vote of owners on Friday, the NBA added Oklahoma City to the roster of major league cities, officially approving the relocation of the SuperSonics.

Legal wrangling over the Sonics’ lease will still determine when the team gets to town, but the vote puts the seal of approval on Oklahoma City’s ascendance from temporary relocation home of the Hornets to landing spot for the Sonics.

The team could be in Oklahoma City as soon as this fall or as late as after the end of the 2009-10 season.

Crabtown in OKC is hosting a watch party for the premiere of season 4 of the Discovery Channel’s Deadliest Catch. King crab dinner for $19.99 on April 15. Yum yum.

Today in Oklahoma it is 8 weeks before the last frost! And that means…indoor seed starting for me! I love this time of the year, when things come alive again and I get to plan my garden for the spring/summer. I’m usually a fall girl, mostly because that’s when my birthday falls, but spring and summer are really “growing” on me.

Are you planning on planting this year? Flowers? Veggies? Both? I really can’t wait and I would love to hear what other green thumbs are up to!

If there is a drop of this stuff on the ground at 5 p.m. I am not going to class.

Happy 100th Birthday to my favorite state! I couldn’t be prouder of the place where I live. Well, I guess if they hadn’t robbed entire people groups of their homes…that would have been better. But other than that!
