Popping the Big Question
The night I asked Julie to marry me
The night I asked Julie to marry me
Our wedding photographs taken on location in Taiwan.
It's alive. It's ALIVE! Our new and improved wedding website is now available to the general public.
Let me know if you see any bugs. I know it doesn't look great on small monitors (I purposefully chose to exclude those people from the full experience as a way to ridicule them for their shortcomings). And people with slow internet connections may have issues with the slideshow.
Now, on to my other projects. If only I could remember...oh, yeah. Maybe I will return to "writing," which is this mythical (or should I say mystical?) exercise whereby I pour words onto the screen, and with each word, die a little bit inside.
(And, yes, this post does count as words to ensure that the front page doesn't get filled up by inane doodles. I'm evil that way.)
Eran took these photos with a disposable water-proof camera.
Somehow we survived.
That's us flying to NYC for the wedding. I drew this before we left. I was not looking forward to another flight, especially since our NY flight was in coach. Except for the luggage aggravations, it turned out not to be a bad flight.
Julie and her sisters get ready for the wedding
We stole these photos from Charles's website: www.trinitrek.com.
When we were looking for rings, I told Julie that after the wedding I didn't want to wear the ring. I decided to give the ring a chance only if it provided me with powers. I told her I would accept invisibility or invulnerability, but actually I was open to anything.
As I was sitting around with Chuck and Charles after the Taiwan wedding, we were discussing what powers my ring granted me. I forget which one said it, but they told me that my ring did not grant me powers, but granted Julie powers.
I do wear my ring more than not, but we'll see how long it lasts. I occasionally attempt my "Sleeeep" (think Dark City) technique, or try to move objects with my ring-clad hand, but so far no good. I'll keep you updated on the powers of the ring.
Huge collection of wedding photos. I'll create a smaller subset of the better photos soon.
More photos of the Taiwan wedding!
Ah, the day and a half between the Taiwan wedding flight and the NYC wedding flight. Surprisingly, I wasn't that tired. We somehow avoided jet lag on the way home, and relaxed during the break. I even caught up on some work mails.
The title was taken from the fact that people who fly in airplanes a lot gain microseconds on their life. This is a relativity thing: if you move fast, time for you slows compared to things moving slower. When you fly at 500mph, you are moving faster relative to the people on earth. It's not that you live longer since according to your watch, you live the same amount of time. It's more that your life appears longer to those who aren't moving as fast. It's confusing and funny and absolutely brilliant (not my doodle, but that it works that way).
The night before the wedding, my mother had a rehersal dinner for the bridal party and out-of-town guests

Our second set of NY wedding photographs. We're still waiting on a few more more.
Here is the final set of photos from the photographer at the NYC wedding. The photographer took these with a film camera and scanned the prints. Once we receive the negatives, we'll hopefully rescan them to improve the fidelity.
The first set of photographs from the NY wedding. More to follow!
This is the first set of two by the photograher during the NY wedding. Another set to come!
I drew this right after we returned from our wedding extravaganza. I enjoy sameness. I like habits and patterns and doing the same thing over and over again. I like change as well, but I view change as the opportunity to create new and better habits.
