my guys

eric bought me a yummy lunch today as we bounced past each other -- he's headed to boston for a few days. i think he did this so i wouldn't get food-jealous. boston is a fun place to eat -- and not just donuts. when we lived there, we momentarily considered trying to eat in every indian restaurant in town, but quickly gave up on that.


ain't technology great? if it weren't for email, instant messaging and cell phones (we even text!) how would we do these relationships? right now, even this blog is figuring in. i tried to tell eric something over lunch, but had the feeling i'd already told him, when he said "i read it in your blog." oh my.

and here's a guy who has always taken pride in whatever work he's done, and who has always done work of which he can be proud. he gave me a fun tour of his shop when i picked up a gorgeous hand-made 9-foot+ metal curtain rod, complete with finials he designed and welded. (uh, no, this is not the curtain rod -- the curtain rod is black.)
