we miss him terribly
You know (or maybe you don't) that one of our very best, very closest friends moved to Paris in September?
He fell madly in love with a French lady and gave up everything: his home, his work, his car, his life - and went.
We met her several times and liked her very very much...but...there is a hole in our lives where he lived. And though he is not dead (thank god), he isn't here. And emailing or talking on the phone is not at all like having him at our table every Saturday night.
We are tremendously happy for him. For them.
How often does it happen that one finds the love of one's life?
But still.
That's why I was so touched by the google ad last night.

(I missed them ALL, thank you very much digital TV conversion. The sky was cloudy, I didn't get the CBS signal.)
(Sorry. It felt about half-way through the game that we should have organized drinking games over alcohol ads...)

Sorry to hear that you lost your friend to France. But speaking from the point of view who has left friends and family on the other side of the world too, I'm sure your friend misses you even more!! Still, how romantic...
