I was born in Omaha, N. E, lived there for 34 years, moved to California. Got married there and when we would be in conversation with others and I would say something he would always say "she is from Nebraska, what does she know?" Many people would ask where I was from, they said I have a Midwest accent, and I would tell them and they would say, oh, nothing but cows and farms and I would tell them I lived in a big city and I barely saw farms or barns unless we drove to the country. Well, I lived in California for 18 years, got divorced and moved back to Omaha. I have never ever been ashamed of where I am from, everywhere has its own beauty.
