dallas

oh dallas. a city i love, a city i hate. that old erasure song, "i love to hate you," well, let's just say it displays my feelings for dallas. in the last four days, dallas has rejected a proposal that would have turned the city around simply because it was attached to someone they don't like. ahhh...what visionaries we are.

since moving to texas from the great city of tulsa oh so many moons ago, i have watched (in horror, i might add) the infamous dallas city council in their many debacles on the evening news. i've watched the news anchors try not to laugh as they cover these crazies and their antics. i've watched the city continue to crumble beneath itself, the city of $30,000 millionaires (by the way, have you seen sheer dallas...genius) seems to be proud of that...hmm. something is wrong. and now the crazies have won. yes, miller may have been one of them for a time herself, but i think she actually said it best at a debate i went to a month or so ago when she stated, "don't you want dallas to have the ability to attract someone better than ME to be the mayor?!?!?" enough said. oh well.
