so long farewell...to the rainy city

my brother in-law sid is the smarty pants of his med-school class at the U. he has never had anything less than a "A" on any test.

he married my older sister liz & they've got 2 kids: charlie & jack.

sid's graduating this spring, specializing in orthopedics. last thursday he found out he'd "matched" to SEATTLE for residency (his top choice).

so happy for them, but it's quickly becoming real to me that i'm losing my 2 favorite little boys(char+jack-jack), lizard(my bff), and sid(my pro dating-coach).

i'll miss your "to-die-for" chocolate chip cookies, our bi-weekly cafe-rio visits, grocery shopping at Dan's in foothill, playing out on the golf course, shop n'go runs, and morning phonecalls.

it's going to be a long 5 years!
