In Columbus Next Week
We’re going to be in Columbus this Sunday through next Sunday for my sister’s wedding. Anyone who reads this and lives in Columbus or therebouts (that means you Erik) and is going to be around, definitely let me know. Does anyone know a good place to eat / drink where 10-15 people can comfortably socialize? We were thinking of someplace like b-dubs, but there has to be someplace better than that.
It’s a funny feeling to go back to Columbus this time of year because it means that almost an entire year has passed since we came back to the US after our trip around the world. Lots of changes. Last year when I was home, I was studying for the GRE to get into Journalism school. Got in, but I decided not to go for a number of reasons, the most important being the birth of our son. Also, in February I started work at one of the hottest startups in Southern Cali and I enjoy it too much to think of doing much else right now. That in itself is a big change because all last year I though I had left my last job with the intention to never return to software. Turns out, software is incredibly fun if you’re in the right position and the right industry and the right company.
Anyway, we’re looking forward to seeing all of you!

I’ll be grading papers and doing research in good ol’ South Bend. I’m guessing that you’re not going to be anywhere in the state of Indiana (and who would, by choice?), so—again guessing—that it probably would be difficult to get together.
Although, if you think there’s anyway to make something happen, I’m all ears.
In either case, please send our best to your sister. I’m sure if my sis knew (she lives in San Francisco now), she’d say the same.
In other news—that’s really great that you’ve hit a stride in your job. Do we have a T-minus countdown until you make it big and sell out?

P - sorry, Sage started to cry and we had to bolt. See you next time.
E - alas. I was hoping we could see you guys - maybe next time. I’ll pass the message along to Sue. Regarding “making it big” - we’re still getting back on our feet in many ways, but I’m learning a lot and having fun in the meantime.
