more of brady

i don't think i said much previously about our dinner last monday with brady. as you can see from the photo, taken at the little thai restaurant in st.elmo, he's in pretty good spirits. he's definitely lost a good bit of weight and isn't quite as energetic as the old brady, but for what he's been through i think he's in pretty amazing shape. his entire right arm is in a cast and his left arm is somewhat bolted together, but the doctors expect a near full recovery. he may never have great range of motion in his left wrist, but he expects to be walking before too much longer, and running not long after that.

we got back yesterday afternoon from the wedding in memphis. a pretty great weekend all around. about 20 of us stayed at the wardell's house, er, the wardell hotel, and spent a lot of time sitting on the porch or around the pool. aside from the hellish heat that seems to never leave memphis, i think everyone really enjoyed themselves and abby and ryan are successfully hitched and on their way to san francisco for a couple weeks.

generation 4 iPods have arrived, and with any luck a certain employer will be buying them for certain employees as a bonus before long.
