If a Blog falls in the forest and no one reads it....

...does it make a sound?

Or, more accurately, if a person fails to update his or her blog in months and months, should anyone care?

Blogger has a new, fancy cool design. I guess they're putting all that money from Google to work on things other than free hoodies.

Raya and I saw Julie and Dan get married in Charleston this past weekend. Had a blast. Wedding and wedding-related events were lovely, and the extracurricular bar-hopping we did Saturday and Sunday nights was fun too. Julie has five brothers, and Raya hasn't seen them since she was a kid. So it was fun for her, I think to get to hang out and party a bit with the boys, particularly Jeremy and Harry.

Julie and Dan are off for two weeks in Florida and then the Caribbean, and when they come back, they'll be 45 minutes away from us (in Tuscaloosa). So we're excited about that.

Now, it's time to plan our next trips. Let's see...Atlanta for July 4th weekend with Raya's parents and David. She heads to Brandeis mid-July for a seminar. She spends at least a couple days at Camp Cosby late July with Camp LJCC. I'm going to try and head to Orlando and visit my family in there somewhere. Raya flies to New Orleans in August for another work thing, and then we return to the Philadelphia area for Tom and Thuy's wedding the second weekend of September. And, we'll probably make our annual Thanksgiving week trip to Florida. Phew!!



Oh yeah, Raya and each got "new" cars in the last couple of months...hers, a 2001 Jeep Cherokee; mine, a 1996 Volvo 850.

We bought Raya's from CarMax, after having it transferred from the CarMax dealership in Tampa. (We sent Raya's mom to do some reconaissance before we shipped it here.)

Mine was purchased on eBay from a dealer in Dallas; I subsequently flew there and drove it back here, 650 miles. The whole process turned out to be a hassle that's described elsewhere, so I won't repeat it here. Suffice it to say that the people who sold it to me are lying, cheating bastards and I'll leave it at that!! Overall, I'm glad I bought it though. It's a beautiful car.

Happy June!
