on: nebraska

so we made it...after both our flights getting delayed, a heckuva lot of turbulence in the air, and a ridiculously long run through o'hare. but we made it nonetheless.

the brothers: so much fun. the two youngest, jared and tommy, are really cute and the oldest younger one james and the older one ben are hilarious and a lot of fun. at least from what i can tell after one day. we'll see what i think by the end of the week. it does make me miss my own brothers though.....

the parents: so nice. that's all i have to say about that. pretty much amazing.

the house: such a cute little farmhouse. slightly chilly but not so bad.

and finally, nebraska: cold, but along with that came my first snow of the year. not much, just a dusting, but enough to be a first snow in any case. enough for there to be (according to james) 4 cars in the ditch on the way to school. it's way in the middle of nowhere, i have no cell phone signal (feel free to try, sometimes i have ONE bar....but rarely) but it's still fun.

and i've discovered that guitar hero isn't as dumb as i had originally presumed it was. that probably has a lot to do with the fact that, not only had i never played it, i'd never even SEEN it played. so we remedied that for several hours this afternoon ;)

and now..just chillaxing, waiting to see what will happen next so i can go with the flow, and trying to figure out the best way to keep my toes warm!

happy thanksgiving everybody and happy birthday to my bestest friend EVER! i luv you dear!
