Phyllis is doing well and in fact, just had a birthday! It just so happens that my fiancee and I got engaged on her birthday a couple years ago (before we even knew her! - Crazy, right?!)
She and I speak regularly, maybe 2-3 times per week. We both wish we lived closer but sometimes life and circumstances just get in the way. Hopefully we will be able to see each other sometime this year? Personally, I think Americans work too hard and don't get enough vacation days :p I'd be fine taking a month or two without pay so I could travel. Ahh, I'll keep dreaming. :)
