Old Friends

It was a good weekend, spent catching up with old friends. We had a 3-hour phone-athon with a friend we hadn't heard from in many months. Thursday we went out for dinner with a friend from the Bay Area who was going to a conference at Tech. And on Saturday, we spent the day hanging out with our friends the postdocs, who emerged from writing theses and have rejoined the land of the living. Between Thomas and moving two years in a row, we often feel pretty isolated, so it was really good to spend so much time with friends.
