Well, really, happy (late) birthday Boka. But I'll always think of you as Schwabe Boka, which I believe you and Geoff have both affirmed is OK.
At a birthday dinner last night, largely due to a significant amount of Sangria (it deserves a capital S,) I promised to dust off my blog. So here it is. Unfortunately I don't have any Pledge with me at work so it won't be the most profound post ever. However, I was inspired by the small crew together last night and how much my longest standing circle of NYC friends has changed since I first met them.
Who would have thought in 2001 that by 2010:
*Iott would live in L.A. but be doing business in NY
*Hale would be married, have a beautiful daughter, and be a television and movie star
*Haragan would be getting an MA in counseling in Tejas
*Schwabe, Radcliffe, O'Grady, Harvey, Buck, Wilkerson and many others would be married. Mostly due to Haven and eHarmony.
*Walla would have starred in just about every major production of Fiddler on the Roof and be settling in Bklyn
*Schwabe Boka would have cast some of the biggest shows on Broadway
*The Hunts would have a new baby
*I would be preparing to move to the mountains with the woman of my dreams
*And, even though he wasn't here in 2001, Gire would be in the Congo.
Wow.
What a privilege it has been to know and walk beside so many amazing, talented, loving, inspiring, and Godly folks. It has been a gift.
So Kate, thanks for giving ME a gift on your birthday.

HOORAY!!! So glad to see you back in the blogosphere. And so glad you were last nite. I echo all these things and the amazement that surrounds it all. Last night was pretty stinkin' awesome and made me so grateful for the life I've been given in our fair city.
PS - once you move to the mountains, you will be REQUIRED to blog on a regular basis, you realize? I will need a way to stay connected. Just so we're clear.
