Happiness
I'm an observer. Many of my favorite moments in life come when I am observing rather than doing. Last night at Taste of Omaha, our group plopped down on some benches alongside the lake in Heartland of America Park after a fun evening of experimental eating and window- (or tent flap-) shopping. We watched the gondolas pass in front of the big ( Read more... ) -
Poker buddies
We've been playing poker quite a bit at Jeff and Leslie's lately. When we were still playing with them at Rick's, they used to bring their baby Kenny over sometimes. He was still a newborn then, so he didn't do much. Now he is 14 months old, and he's a very smart young child.

I hope I can meet more soon, too. With school and being in Omaha, I think I get new-person withdrawal sometimes. I also feel that I've finally developed a ( Read more... ) -

Meanings
Dear Future Self,
With all the thoughts I've been having lately, it's no surprise I've gotten caught up a bit in this NFL boat thing. Four guys were fishing, the boat capsized, and they found one but three are still missing. Given the time they've been out there and the temperature of the water, their chances of survival are not good. What a crappy ( Read more... ) -
