Yeah, I would say browse the internet and see what it can offer you as a start, and then check out the local government listings and such.
Because I do not know what the market supports in DFW, as I am in Wash. DC. I recommend the following.

Browse Monster.com and any other job listing banks online. Compare your skills with the job / pay offerings in your area.
