Somewhere in Middle America




Above is what I've been doing in Omaha. Those are pictures taken from Jamie's new laptop, the same computer that I am currently using with the newly installed wireless in our house. I should also mention that I also got a new laptop (an early graduation present, now I just have to make sure I graduate) -- very exciting. The photo booth with its multiple distortions have provided endless entertainment. In honor of the new computers bought in Omaha, I will list some of the other great things about Omaha: no traffic, neighbors who wave when you drive by, Dairy Queen, Sonic chocolate cream pie milkshakes, discounted Caribou cold press coffee with cinnamon, cheap grocery stores, wireless at home, DVR in basement, basketball hoop in driveway, ping pong table in basement, backyard, and that is just off the top of my head.

So what else have I been doing here besides taking pictures with our new laptops? I have played tennis, basketball (including pig and around the world), Wii (my high score in bowling is now a 246) and watched TV (Grey's, old Gilmore, SNL, Weeds) and college basketball. And I visited Dairy Queen and Sonic -- Reese's peanut butter cup blizzards and chocolate cream pie shakes are better than I remember. I also took Sadie, who could learn a few tips from Rufus, for walks. I have also slept a lot and I currently have a bad cold. I have not done any writing, but I have been doing some reading. It has been fun and relaxing, but it has gone by very fast. I was supposed to come back to L.A. yesterday, but my plane was stuck on the East Coast, so I should be returning to L.A. and real life tonight. The transition will be tough.

ok, i am really glad that i looked at this here at work and not before bed. otherwise i would've had nightmares about being trapped in an asylum for disfigured people and oarks. sounds like you had a quintessential spring break, omaha style. i'm actually really jealous. hopefully your wii and PIG skills will help jump start your post-graduation career.

Nice Lindsay. Thank you for the payback. I look incredibly creepy in that picture, kinda a cross between a Gremlin/Roseanne/hobbit. Yeah....

I am hoping to join a professional pig basketball league post-graduation. If not in America, then somewhere in the Scandinavian region -- I feel like they would have better uniforms there.

I am quite versatile, I would be a valuable player in both horse and around the world as well, and last but certainly not least, knockout.
