Don't forget the good fun. I miss you. Ruth, you crazy German, thanks for looking out and hanging out. See you in Deutschland (or on the porch). Thanks to the v-ball girls who made that endeavor as enjoyable as they could. My sweet cousins and friends, Chris and Will. Thanks for watching out for me Chris, it really made a difference. I've missed you. Will, I'm so glad we got reacquainted this year. Don't forget what you're made ofand don't let them get you down. Last, thank you so much Bobby, I'd be long lost by now without your help. I miss you already. To you who still aren't done, especially you DJ (and you Will), hang tough, ifI can you can.
