Inspired by...

Well... I'm inpsired by those who are inspired. Easily inspired am I. I'm inspired by those who write inspiring quotes. For example: Man must cease attributing his problems to his environment, and learn again to exercise his will-- his personal responsibility. ~Albert Schweitzer. How inspiring is that? I'm inspired by our friends from New Haven who came to visit us in Philadelphia this past weekend. They're amazing! As are so many, if not all of our friends. If there is one thing that I can say about Marc and I... we keep good company. Great company! Our friends and family are inspiring, hilarious, talented, brilliant, kind... So, I find it very easy to become inspired because I'm surrounded by inspiring people. (How many times can I say "inspiring" in this blog??)

Well, in any case. I'm inspired by my friends who have blogged and updated their lives for the benefit of all who are curious. So, I'm gonna post! It's my once-in-a-season effort.
This is from our weekend in D.C. We stayed with Anne and Shamik. What a lovely and comfortable abode they have! We were spoiled. Marc drove down on Friday to meet me and my coworkers as we finished up our 3 day conference at the Society of Behavioral Medicine. I gave my first professional presentation at that conference!
