after the wedding...

Here is my one photo from the day of the wedding - the bride and groom(with mom, Em, and Jonathan)...

on the way to the reception.

In Charlotte

For the weekend, I'm here in Charlotte with Armi and Shanti, showing them around and having some fun :-) I truly intended to write a post to catch up on all the fun that happened in CA from June 7-21, while I was there...however, the time got away with me once I returned to Greensboro late last tuesday night.

I don't have much to say here, except that I have watched/seen some interesting shows/movies in the past weeks, including: Firefly, Batman Begins, Howl's Flying Castle, To Wong Fu, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar, Bewitched, and Connie and Carla

All interesting to watch :-) some more than others - many are highly recommended, although Bewitched is admittedly completely fluffy. To Wong Fu and Connie and Carla are gloriously filled with people in drag :-) Very funny movies! Firefly is simply excellent as a series. Everyone should go see Serenity when it comes out this summer!

Have fun with the summertime!

YAY!!!!

Armi is finally here!!! After a long series of mishaps and boondoggles, Shanti and I finally greeted Armi as she arrived at the Raleigh/Durham airport this evening :-) :-D There's a great photo of us three and our crazy "headdresses", but I won't be able to put up a copy of it quite yet. Finally, in the meantime, we've made our way back to Greensboro (arriving back here at the house around 1:30am...) and have spent the last couple of hours getting settled and visiting!

So, I'm leaving for CA in about 6 hours (for the airport anywho...it will have been so long since I was last there...) but I can't wait to hear stories from Shanti and Armi when I get back about Armi's first weeks in the USA... There should be good ones :-) Plus, I think Armi will know everyone in Greensboro by the time I return ;-)

Joseph and Lorian are to be married on Friday, and, as I said, I'm flying out tomorrow to be there. It should be a happy time, and I wish them, as always, all peace and joy -
