Mineral Wells, Texas. Population less than 20,000. A one hour plane ride and a drive that would take less than 4 hours from Midland-Odessa.

We always hear about celebrities, with their millions, how they spend their money on lavish trips, expensive clothes, cars, bags, shoes.

I have a dear friend who works at a local liquor store and keeps me up-to-date with the lastest hip hop celebrities to come out with a wine or a vodka or tequila or what have you.

Until she started working there I had no clue so many rappers dabbled in the adult beverage industry.
I need a 'I-visited-Marfa-and-all-I-got-was-a-picture-in-front-of-Prada-Marfa shirt.' You see, a few short weekends ago I was in the Marfa area and while it is a lovely town, nothing exciting happened for me there like it is now. A celebrity is in town. Why couldn't HE be there when I visited?
Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow and no doubt we are all excited for family, friends and food! We all have our plans set pretty much every year but let us pretend for a moment....that we are rich and famous. lol If you could spend Thanksgiving with any celebrity, who would it be and why?

Father's Day is this Sunday and while we will all spend the day making our dads and baby daddy's feel special, I also feel it necessary to recognize other important men in our lives.....celebrity dad's!
