Skyping with Jen and Rob

Oh, technology. Is there anything you can't do? No, there is not. Technology can do anything, except maybe teleportation. But really, if you're sitting around and withholding thanks and praise from technology because it has not bestowed teleportation upon you yet, then you must realign your priorities, friend.

Anyways, we have been meaning to Skype with Jen and Rob for a long time. (Skype, if you don't know, is a free service that allows you to make free phone or video calls to anyone else, as long as you both have a microphone and/or web cam.) It was fun to feel like we were actually talking to them in person.


We got to catch up, and they even walked their laptop around their house to get a quick glimpse of their baby boy Aiden, whom we love just as much as them.

It also allowed Rhianwen and I to practice extremely rudimentary puppetry skills, as we involved tiny animal friends in the conversation.


In my hand, you'll notice, is a Care Bear riding a tiny elephant. That elephant is now serving a very vital purpose on my desk:


He holds my wedding ring.

But back to the topic at hand, we love and miss Jen and Rob the end.
