Here is why this is relevant. Sean and I were driving to Wild Flying Buffalo Wings or whatever that place is called, to enjoy a $.49 wing night (yes, please) when we noticed a car speed up quickly behind us and jerk to the driver's side and start making an obnoxious hand-gesture at us closely resembling "the claw" from Liar Liar. It took me about 2 seconds to process what they were doing. The two guys, probably around 26 or 27, cruising together in a feminine Lexus flashing us pulled up next to my windows to flash us the TCU "horny-toad" horn. Uh, what? Yes. In case you weren't aware, TCU's school mascot is a horned frog--a PURPLE, horned frog. So, while they were clearly mocking our Y sticker, we reveled in the fact that they were 27-ish, cruising together in a femme Lexus, and flashing the gesture for a purple horned frog--picture THAT in your head.

Go horned frogs?
We proudly sport a Y sticker on the back of our SUV to pay homage to our alma mater--it's just something we decided was important for us to do especially since we were leaving Utah. I was especially excited at the prospect of it because I really am proud of BYU and all that entails--namely, sports. WELL. Here is where it gets interesting: We moved to Fort Worth, TX--home of Texas Christian University-aka TCU. Duh. I can't believe I didn't figure that one out. So, I thought about it for a while and thought to myself, "Fort Worth is a pretty large city--I bet we'll be, like, on the out-skirts or something." Nope. We live about 5 miles from campus. On top of THAT, our complex is drowning in TCU fans--from ages 19-60+. I'm talking serious TCU people. In fact, our neighbor is a recent TCU grad.
