I don't blog about my candle making adventures, my family (with two thousand pictures of my kids), or my life as a housewife who makes quilts 24/7. I'm not some pretentious hipster who can't finish three sentences without using some form of the word "musing." I'm just here to laugh at society.

I am Landers, hear me roar.

You know what's a great feeling? Being important. And I'll be honest here; I am not an important person. I am, in fact, pretty insignificant. But no more insignificant that you, o great beholding, judgemental eye.

But anyways, it is fun knowing that my ancestors were better than yours. Granted, your ancestors may be pretty cool, but did your ancestors build this?

The answer is no, unless we're related.

That there is what is now known as the Springfield Little Theatre. It was build in 1909, just two years after Oklahoma was made a state, and was originally called the Landers Theatre. It still puts on plays, a lot like how our Performing Arts Center does here in Tulsa. My family sold it in the '70s sometime. It's a pretty pimpin' place, complete with ghost stories and such, and you can read about it here and here. Also, Lucas Grabeel, that guy you probably know as that hot chicks brother from High School Musical, got his start there, and while attending the centennial in 2009 I got the chance to get a picture with him. He was really short, and his hands were softer than a baby's bottom. That's about all I can say about that. I lost my picture though, so this one of him and my brother will have to do.

We look pretty similar. It's close enough.
