I just remembered that I don't think I've written on arachne about anything that's been going on in my life for the last few months... Which is quite a lot!
I one week, middle of June, I graduated, got married, and moved to the Bay Area. Some of you may know I was actually already married for a year - the way that worked is that we quietly got legally married in the City Hall last year, for practical purposes, but this year we had a big ceremony and reception with guests and such. One of the reasons for that was to get graduation and the wedding in the same week so my parents could visit and see both, which they did. They've never been in the US before, since the trip from Poland is expensive, so it was nice that they could finally come. The wedding went very well, sometime soon I'll put info about in in my journal (http://vole.stanford.edu/weronika/, click on JOURNAL) - I'm still behind on that. But there are pictures (http://vole.stanford.edu/images/wedding/). It was all in a botanic garden, very pretty, and we designed the ceremony ourselves (neither of us is religious, and legally we were already married anyway, so we could do whatever we wanted). I did wear a dress, which is a rare thing... <G> I didn't manage to make any lace to wear for the wedding, but Tamara made me a beautiful Milanese bracelet! Pictures of that in my lace journal (same webpage, click on the Journal link under LACE). Thank you, Tamara!! Soon after that, me and Geoffrey moved into Stanford couples housing, so now I'm permanently in the Bay Area, can go to Cathy's Lace Museum classes every week, and all sorts of good things. I did not get into grad school, which I'm actually pretty happy about - now I get to relax and make lace for a few months, and I'll look for a job after the summer. Life is good.
