I'm back home after a long weekend in Boston watching my little sister get married to an excellent man. My whole family was there, including the war-weary Jerusalem branch. It was already little baby Dave's second wedding and third plane trip in only ten months of life. He conducted himself beautifully, in spite of the fact that we managed to leave the house without his bottle.

I'll have more to say about the whole zany weekend later -- silly stories of airport security, travel with an infant, a wife who doesn't get enough sleep, a bi-national family with its own healthy share of dysfunctions, and a brand new vegetarian brother-in-law. In the meantime, Mazal Tov to my sister and new brother-in-law, who are now enjoying their honeymoon in Maine and the Maritimes.

Mazal Tov also to my sophomore year rommate, Michael Breuer (aka "The Putz") who also got married this weekend. Best wishes, Mike. Cara is a very lucky lady.
