My nephew Tim, who is in graduate school in Boston (excuse me while I pause for a moment of pure envy), got married to Ashley last fall.
I haven't had a chance to meet Ashley in person yet, but am happy that she let me friend her on facebook sight unseen. Especially because today she posted a link to her new blog, in which she writes about her student budget dollar-a-day "splurges" designed to avoid true budget busting splurges. Her personality shines through, and I love the little glimpses of her Boston neighborhood.
What a fun way to get to know her before I meet her!
Plus there's this: I've put off getting a wedding present for Tim and Ashley (according to the "rules," I have a year, right?) because I want to pick something that will suit them. Even if it ends up being an impersonal gift card, I want it to be a gift card for a store they'd really like to shop at. Her blog is going to give me all sorts of ideas!

It's fun to see all the ways the internet allows us to connect and form new relationships. What a great example.
