The passing of a friend...

I just found out today that CS, my good friend and colleague passed away last night, losing her struggle with breast cancer. She is the one who hired me at UC Berkeley and mentored me for years here. I am having trouble feeling quite anything and I am sure the feelings will come soon enough. She worked here for more than 40 years and contributed to the life of the campus. I learned a lot from her and she had a wicked sense of humour.

I will miss her a lot and I am glad she is no longer in pain. Cancer is a cruel disease and I am sorry that she had to go through that.

I am not up for comments on this as I don't want to go back and forth about it. I appreciate your thoughts as always and know you are there. Thank you for reading. Spare a thought for her spirit and have a laugh. She loved to laugh and tell a good story.

Here is to her.

Giants oh yeah Giants...

I mean the San Francisco Giants Baseball Team. For the win tonight! 5-0 and in St Louis too. Take that! Yeah! I don't even follow baseball and I am watching the games. We have orange fever here in SF! Go Giants woot! I even made myself an icon to post with and will likely be posting more on this sports fanatical topic. Barry Zito is my hero tonight but all the boys did well.

Giants for the win!
