Thaw before reheating.

Paul emailed work Wednesday morning to say that he was going to be out for a few hours that morning because:
1. He was ill
2. The truck was stolen (so we thought at that point)
3. TiVo died.
Many deeply heartfelt email condolenses arrived quickly from Paul’s co-workers. They lamented the (temporary) loss of TiVo, and commented how horrible it was to be sick, but to be sick without TiVo was incredibly tragic.
No one mentioned the car.

Regular dishes on life in New Orleans, historic home renovation, raising kids, completing a PhD, travel near and far, global concerns, and health issues.
You know the story, right? International health... work all over the place... drag my kids around in sacks through villages in Central America... yadda yadda. I decided to go for another degree, so in 2004 we moved to New Orleans with no intention of staying. Then Katrina. And then *blink*blink* New Orleans is a completely different place and we just can't leave. Suddenly I'm on TV talking about immigrants and health and Paul is starting a company. Or two. His side is high-tech, mine is community health and our lives are yearly evacuation, regular celebrations, and nonstop work here, there, and everywhere. Our door is always open. I only ask that if you decide to go ahead and make yourself that mint julep, you make one for me, too.
We strive to make our life our argument.
