If I were pulling down I-35 (77) I would branch off at Denton and take I-35W through Fort Worth instead of I-35E through Dallas.
You did not say what your final destination was. There is a westward route that would take you about 50 miles round-a-bout. U.S. 380W out of Denton to U.S. 281, South of Jackboro.
OR U.S. 380 to FM-51 South of Decatur, TX (U.S. 287S for 1.5 miles to Hit FM-51S.) In Weatherford, TX, pick up SR-171S. In Cleburne, TX pick up US 67N for 10 miles and then you will hit 35W (south) and be on your way.
You will still have about 20 miles of I-35 loop around San Antonio to consider. Try making that during non-work travel times for the locals, or 1100-1300 (lunch-siesta)
