Why are all my psychic twins girls from Texas?

No, really, I want to know. I mean, there's [livejournal.com profile] ljmckay, who has been my mental twin for a few years now *grins and hugs you*.

But now there's a girl I work with in the library. We've known each other for about a week, and have only spent a few hours actually in one another's presence. And yet we casually drop into speaking in unison and listening to us discussing the authors we like is apparently very amusing. (Our immediate supervisor was laughing her head off at us last night.)

But still, out of all the places in the world for me to have psychic twins from, why the heck is Texas number one?

In an another amusing incident from last night, we ended up talking with a guy last night while we were working. It only struck me now, when he e-mailed me about the next meeting for college democrats, that he's apparently named after a character in Labyrinth. And now I have a strange mental picture of David Bowie as the Goblin king as a geeky freshman computer engineer. My mind is a seriously weird place to be sometimes.

Well, Texas is a big country. ;)

But maybe you're just a displaced Texan! I didn't know I was born in the wrong region of the country until I tried good ol' Southern soul food (we're talking cornbread, okra, gumbo, collard greens, fried chicken, the WORKS) and realized what I'd been missing all those years. So maybe you're a Texan at heart...

No, she can't stand the heat and humidity of coastal Texas, and isn't a fan of HOT, SPICY Mexican food from farther to the west.

Just because you and Elizabeth are insane and like Slenski salsa straight from the bottle...

Compared to that, of course I don't seem to like really hot and spicy foods.

I'm just amused that you called Texas a country instead of a state.

You guys really do never forget that you were once independent.

But like my father says, I don't think I'd survive Texas. I loved my grandparents, but I hated the weather in Oklahoma when we'd go visit them.
