So last I was here was after the Big Blizzard! (*rushing wind noises*). Well, it wasn't over so fast. I drove to Kansas City on May 2nd through a closed I29. It was frightening. I had a friend on the phone telling me how horrible it was and that I should turn around and stay home (it was good for keeping me that much more cautious) and the drive itself at times seemed like I was stuck in a zombie movie where all the cars were crashed off the road. Very scary, but all worked out ok!

Had a great week following this. Weather got good, started using the kitchen, went to the zoo (yes! many pictures to come!), and explored more of Omaha's food joints. I've developed this horrible head cold. Today I was mostly useless and went in and out of consciousness at home and work. It's crazy, it reached 80 freakin degrees outside today and I still had a bit of snow in the yard! (ok, it officially was all melted by tonight) And to be sick while it's so nice outside - just a kick in the pants. But the up and down weather of the midwest is back and I like it (I think). Once again the weather guy becomes a local celebrity, known more than any other personalities.

So, last week was mahvalous. Got high on Lucky Charms. Discovered funniest site evah here at icanhascheezburger.com. KU won the Big XII both ways and I've started up the annual college bracket contest among friends/family from all over (if you're interested, let me know - starts Thursday!).

I'm also on a mission - to find white sour cream frosting. NO ONE carries it in New York, California and now Nebraska. But they do carry it in Wichita. Crazy! Got new orthotics in shoes and now feel like I'm walking sideways and got the new DDR so I can mess up my toes by dancing at home cuz there's no one below me to complain, mwa ha ha! Ok, this is all clearly proof that the cold meds are taking full effect again. Ciao 4 now!
