Just another manic Monday. I spent a long weekend relaxing with Rob and Jen in Doylestown, PA. Such a cute town. Such loving friends with open hearts and open arms. Much appreciated R&R at the NJ beach and historic Doylestown. What a great trip to see more Wilson grads making the 'real' world their own.

Rob and I shaved my head this weekend. Just like most things in life, the important part was the process and not the outcome. Liberation did not come from being bald, but instead, from cutting off all my hair. I had a great time snatching handfuls of new growth bleached by the sun and shaving my head.

Logistics of meeting friends out here is sometimes confusing, but definitely worth it.

Just some thoughts...in sickness and in health... why that vow? were people leaving their spouses? was it to cover all the bases of the unknown? what is sickness? what is health? how much control can we exert over them?
