Omaha, NE

On August 30, I drove to Omaha, NE to visit my friend Melanie and her husband Scott. Melanie and I are old high school buddies, and she got her PhD at the same time I did. Unlike me, however, she actually has a job. A good one, too.

Melanie and Scott's house is a nice-looking brick deal in a quiet neighborhood.

Overall, it was a pretty lazy week. While Melanie woke up early and went to work every day, Scott and I sat around and played video games. Good times. I also ate an Omaha steak.

One day, I decided to do kata in a park right off of the University of Nebraska-Omaha campus. While doing so, a dude drove by in a car and kept yelling "Hey pussy" out his window at me. What did I do?

a) Ignore him.
b) Throw my sai through his gas tank and blow up his car.
c) Tell him, "Pussy's not my name, pussy's my game."


In addition to hanging with Melanie and Scott, I also hung out with their cat Nico and their dog Kira. This is the best picture I could get of Kira because she never sits still:
