Tuxedo Junction

Well I tried y'all, but Helen Louise will not be swayed. Elvis she wants and Elvis she gets. On the positive side, this has eliminated my need to hire a band. He's bringing the whole gang to perform. I just hope I don't throw a hip out trying to keep up with the two of them. Which brings me to my escort dilemma. I have had so many calls wanting to be my date to this happening event and I really didn't want to hurt anyone feelings so I decided there is plenty of me to go around so I'm bringing 'em all!No Texas party would be complete without one or two Lone Star State treasures, Lyle being one of them. What's not to love. Only problem with him......he's got bigger hair than me.
Harry called and said Jill gave him permission to come out and play with me. I am in love with this guy and no one wears a tux better. Hubba Hubba!!! And do you remember him dancing with Sandra in "Hope Floats"? Y'all know this southern boy would provide hours and hours of fun. Maybe I could even sweet talk him into playing a little piano for us. We'll see.
Another one of my all time favorite Texas Treasures called and said he wouldn't be available that evening. Girls, he was actually crying when he said it. Bless Delbert's heart. Oh well, at least it wasn't me declining his invitation that broke his heart.
Jay said he'd love to escort me, but wanted to know if he could wear his apron and if Duke could come too! I am sorry y'all, but I just refuse to play second fiddle to a dog. Besides, he wanted to bring his secret family recipe as well and I can't find beans anywhere on the list for aphrodisiacs. Scratch him and his little dog too!
Did I tell y'all I'm just wild about Harry and he's just wild about me? Oh, I did. Well, so sorry, but I'm thinking he may just be the one.
But then, Chris called. Oh my goodness, what is a girl supposed to do? I couldn't say no. So it looks like it will be Chris, Lyle, Harry(sigh!) and I. Feel free to bring an extra escort if you like. When it comes to men, I always say the more, the harryer, I mean merrier!

Now I'd like to answer some quick questions y'all have had.

1. No, I will not be wearing the torpedo bra. Too many flashbacks to Jr. High dances.

2. Cher, I swear if you put a bra on one of your dead animals..........

3. All divas allowed. Just don't try to steal my spotlight. I plan on wearing one as a crown.

4. Trish, if your dog looks better in a dress than me........

5. All dress rules will be included in the invitation.

Be sure and keep watching for your invitation. It will be coming soon, I promise.

I love parties by invite only. I'm a little concerned about my dress, but I'm going to the gym...gotta be sure I don't have too many lumps. I may be mistaken for a pot of gravy or something. What am I saying? I probably got the lumps from the gravy.
