New Drives

After 4 years with BlueHost, I’ve migrated Xephalon.net to Hostinger. The website was in need of updates, so I also took the opportunity to simplify the layout for version 4.0. My BMW i4 also finally arrived at the dealer last week. This was my first time purchasing a new vehicle, and while I managed to turn down all the extended services and warranties, missed the theft deterrent device included on the bill which set me back an extra $1K. The blue color felt like it was manifested from the RC car that Jeff and Melody gifted me 20 years ago, and I was quickly enamored by the smooth yet powerful ride. Too bad it didn’t arrive in time for me to try it on my drive to SF for the Pacific Retina Club last weekend. The Mission Bay Conference Center was a nice venue to enjoy interesting clinical cases and interactive talks, but I ultimately ducked out early and headed home to teach Westley how to play Monopoly and celebrate the end of the school year. This past weekend, I flew to Utah for the Clinical Trials at the Summit conference. The industry-focused meeting was hardly worth the fancy hotel or drive from Salt Lake City, but I at least got to catch up with my friend Christina over dinner. I had the ambitious goal of waking at 4am to photograph the Bonneville Salt Flats at sunrise next morning, but ultimately made the saner choice of sleeping in and catching an earlier flight home. With my being away from home every weekend this month, I want to squeeze in what little time I have with family.
