This last weekend Paul and I were in Vegas celebrating our birthday weekend (whoot!), and I stopped by the Chocolate Swan store in Mandalay Place. As I was purchasing a dark chocolate covered orange for Paul (and a Bailey's truffle for me), the girl at the checkout counter saw my zipper pull on my little backpack (a Texas logo with my name on it). She asked me where in Texas I was from, and I told her- Austin. She looks at me and says, "Is that next to Sydney? You know, where Nemo is from?" Uhhh... after recovering from snorting, I said, "Sydney, Australia?" Maybe she recognized the incredulity on my face, because she quickly recovered, saying, "Silly me! Texas doesn't even have an ocean!"
Here's your sign.
