A typical Saturday in Omaha
I took a long walk this morning, finishing up at the Farmer's Market, downtown, where I got some huge zucchini and six bell peppers. I'm concocting some vegetarian recipes because my sister Merf is coming to visit me in two weeks! Yay. Thanks, Edie, this means a lot to me (she has nearly six nicknames and I just realized that I used two of them in the same phrase). Peter and I are excited to see you and to show you a gorgeous fall in Omaha. Bring your jacket 'cuz temps are dropping! Peter and I usually go to the gym in the late morning or rollerblade on one of the many trails around Omaha, then go to the computer lab for a few hours (we don't have the internet at home). He studies and I work on my thesis. Later, we go to his parents for some free grub (we obviously need free food if we can't afford the internet at home). We spend the night at his parents every Saturday night for two reasons: they live right by the church and Peter walks to his 6:30am Bishopric meeting. Then, I can take our only car to church at 9am or so. Its fun to spend time over there with them in their big fat house all weekend. Back to the thesis... ugh...

How fun to have your sister come visit. My mom just came to visit, and it was lots of fun. It is also nice to have family and be able to stay at peter's house. I enjoy it when I stay with matt's family. how much longer on your thesis?
My friend Dana called every five seconds for two days straight and got through three times. I tried calling for an hour and was done--no patience for that kind of thing. You'll just have to be very persistent. I even felt guilty for going because it was not my life's ambition to go to the Oprah show. But, it was a chance I knew would probably never happen again, so I took it. :) I am headed to KC at the end of October--so excited they are getting a temple! It's about time!
