Sammy is having a day out with his Mommy because his mother’s having a bad day and she needed a break in any case, leaving me in the house with my thoughts – because my parents are out on a date day as well. And my thoughts keep drifting back to Nebraska cities.

I find it rather amusing that Donna had to sit through an entire rant of my Uncle Barry regarding the general evil that is the Nebraska highway. Of course, I don’t believe that there is a highway around here called Nebraska unless I’ve been really out of it for the longest of times, […]

As happy as I am about the tradition and culture of sports (collegiate football in particular) here in Nebraska, I can’t help but feel lost whenever I get dragged into yet another convoluted conversation with my boys about thing like the Nebraska bowl.

One of my older acquaintances, Mischa, had to file for Nebraska unemployment recently. Not that Nebraska unemployment is so bad – the Nebraska Unemployment Office, according to my friend Mischa, actually has some pretty nice people working for it, and working to help the unemployed. But I know for a fact that […]

Donna is still trying to figure out which Lincoln Nebraska newspaper she wants to patronize, even though she’s been staying here for months already – and even though she grew up here, and in that time, I distinctly remember her not liking to read the newspaper in the first place. But as it […]

So yeah, it seems that Sammy noticed that I hadn’t played the game with him in a while, so he decided that I should be harassed for it. There’s something rather endearing about a boy his age trying to get his Auntie’s attention by trying to set her hair on fire (I acknowledge […]
