I'm a Whore for the Backyardigans

Mister mrtl may be happy to hear that Tom is no longer my #1 MySpace friend. I'm a little stunned over it myself, but when I received the email today from the North Charleston Coliseum, which is hosting the Backyardigans Live tour next month, saying that I could win FOUR FREE TICKETS for making them one of my top three friends, I knew what I had to do.

Tom is now #2. Mister mrtl is #3.

So what if I already have tickets to take Bug next month? The more the merrier, for sure!

Tom, don't worry, hoss. If I don't win, I'm fixin' to put you right back in your spot. (Note the local linguistics I've picked up. I heard "I'm fixin'" today at an appointment and adopted it right away. I'm fixin' to use it all the time.)

You crack me up. I've been a Hillbillian my whole life, and even I have never adopted "fixin' to." (Purists would say "a-fixin'-ta." But in your honor, I'm a-fixin' ta wish you a blessed day. :)
