Jeebus and His New Wife are Totally Made for Each Other

Over the summer, Jeebus got married to a girl whose name sounds like Fanny. She’s Chinese. We like to tease her because she doesn’t play any musical instruments and hates math. Jeebus grew a beard sometime between then and now. I stuck toothpicks in it to see if this were really possible. It is. I think Jeebus and Fanny are made for each other.

Usually when the Mother Trucker and Prophet come to town they want to go to the local semi-health food store (otherwise known as Sprouts) and fill up on vitamins, produce, and almond cheese. They also like to eat at the local Chinese all-you-can-eat buffet. However this was Fanny’s first time in Texas and I really wanted to give her a fun taste of what Texas is all about so I suggested we also hit Downtown Dallas for some conspiracy theory landmarks and a cattle drive–also known as the JFK Memorial and Pioneer Plaza since I’m sure Jeebus’ new wife can cook Chinese. This post is clearly about us visiting Pioneer Plaza (conspiracy theory landmark in a later post).

(This is my husband sticking his head in one of the longhorns’ butts.)

“The large sculpture commemorates nineteenth century cattle drives that took place along the Shawnee Trail, the earliest and easternmost route by which Texas longhorn cattle were taken to northern railheads. The trail passed through Austin, Waco, and Dallas until the Chisolm Trail siphoned off most of the traffic in 1867. The 70 bronze steers and 3 trail riders sculptures were created by artist Robert Summers of Glen Rose, Texas. Each steer is larger-than-life at six feet high; all together the sculpture is the largest bronze monument of its kind in the world. Set along an artificial ridge and past a man-made limestone cliff, native landscaping with a flowing stream and waterfall help create the dramatic effect.” via Wikipedia

Although Pioneer Plaza is supposed to be a heavily visited tourist attraction in Dallas, we didn’t see hardly anyone there until the very end when some high school students showed up. Partly I think why no one was there was because it was a school day; the other reason being because it was cold. Like 50 F cold. Personally I couldn’t have asked for a better winter, I mean last week it was almost 80 F.

Since no one was there it was really easy to act goofy. Hence my husband sticking his head is a longhorn’s butt. Next, we showed Fanny how to grab a bull by its horns:

I think she needs more practice.

Then, it was Jeebus’ turn.

Oh yes he did.

See, they’re totally made for each other.

Totally.
