somewhere around May 23! We don't know the gender and won't find out until the arrival. I'm still working as an assistant D.A. in Norfolk C ounty. I had begun a job search but have decided to put it on hold for a w hile-at least until after the baby arrives. It's somewhat challenging interviewing for jobs with a big tummy! We're still living in Walpole, MA, and w ill probably stay in our current house for baby #1 and perhaps baby #2, as well. It's a smallish Cape, which suits us just fme right now, but I'm not sure how we'll feel once it starts to become filled w ith big plastic toys and baby things!" I also heard from fellow late-night denizen of SAGA, Brent O'Leary, who provides the following:"I am still in Tokyo,Japan. I have been here for about five years now as a senior associate with the law firm White & Case. Not much new happening here. I did come out this year in Asia Laws Guide to Leading Lawyers for corporate finance and e-commerce, which was nice to see, and I organized my third charity party (for Make A Wish Japan) at the end of August. This time we had about 330 people down at Kamakura Beach with three bands and two DJs. It turned out well, and we raised a bit of money so I was happy. I am planning another charity party for the winter but haven't gotten much prepared yet." Karen Heath Anti unfortunately missed Reunion, but for a good reason-she was celebrating her daughters' birthdays. Here's what she's been up to: "In a nut shell, I got a master's in higher education administration and worked at Springfield College as a career counselor. In July of 1997, I married a wonderful man, and our first daughter, Michaela, was born in June of 1998. In June of 2000, Elizabeth was born. This year, I left my job to stay home full-time. It was a very difficult decision, but one that I am thrilled with now. Somehow, I am staying just as busy as ever with volunteer work with the YMCA and Welcome Wagon." Linda Bernstein Jasper wrote about her first-hand experience of Sept.11, 2001: "I was in my office in Tower One of the World Trade Center when it was attacked on 9/11. Fortunately, I was able 'to get out safely. After making a nightmare commute for one month from our house in Maplewood, NJ, to my company's temporary HQ on Long Island, I was actually happy when my position was among the hundreds that were eliminated following the attack. I took off five months and thoroughly enjoyed not working. I am now back at work, directing the healthcare accounts for Keating Public Relations. I see Michelle Jasper Brody all the time, as I married her cousin, Dan, over two years ago. We enjoy being cousins-in-law." Michael J. Pina e-mailed me as well: "I think last update I was in law school and about to marry a woman named Saba. Well, we are married and have two little girls, Ililta (two) and Laila (11 months). Our most recent addition to the family is a puppy. .. a Rhodesian Ridge back from Louisiana, and his name is Zeke. He is eight weeks old and hates the New England cold weather." Molly Buck Eldridge wrote, " I am sorry I didn't make it to the Reunion-looked and sounded like fun! I am writing with news of my second baby who was born on Jan. 11, 2003! Alex David Eldridge is great and joins older brother, Ian, who is two and one-half. We are still in Crested Butte, CO, and are doing well. It is a beautiful place, and the skiing is great! If anyone is ever traveling in Colorado, please look us up! " I have also heard from our Class President, Malcolm Maclean, who is working harder than ever and traveling extensively. Malcolm and his w ife, Mimi, have a two-year-old son, Mac, who by now is probably bigger than I. I also caught up with Christina Bennett, who has been living in the
Big Apple since graduation. Well, Christina is packing up and moving to Boston with h er boyfriend, and to be closer to her sister. Jeff Nowak, his wife, Cristen, and daughter, Grace, just moved out of Boston to a 100-year-old house in Andover. Jeff works for Arnold Worldwide and was out in LA recently shooting a commercial for his account, The Hartford. We were able to get together for a few drinks and to teach my son to say "Bloody Mary." Drew Kemalian lives in Braintree, MA, and is working h ard (especially leading up to tax time) as a CPA. I was able to catch up with Drew, his wife, Donna, and daughter, Lauren, during a trip to Boston last October. As for me, I am so sorry that I have missed the recent blizzards on the East Coast. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that we had an earthquake just a week ago that shook us awake at 4 in the morning. I won't complain. I'll take that over shoveling snow any day. Let me close by saying again how much I appreciate everyone's updates. They don't have to be long, just send them! Until next time.

Not everyone, though . .. some people relish the cold. Or, at least, are enjoying the snow. Jennifer (Siglag) Larsen checked in, midwinter, from snowy New England. "Mter two-and-a-half years living in Stowe, VT, my husband and I are still as happy as we were the first day we moved here. We've decided this is the right place for us, so this spring we will begin looking for a home to buy. We own our own Web design firm and work from home, whichreally allows us to make our own schedule and take advantage of the natural beauty around us. "I take my two black Labs snow-shoeing in the woods with m.e several times a week, and I have been doing some occasional cross-country skiing at the Trapp Family Lodge, owned by the von Trapps of Sound of Music fame. Plus, with Stowe Mountain ski resort only nine miles away, there's always the downhill option, though after injuring myself snowboarding two years ago, I don't do much of that anymore. I love the snow, but admit that I'm getting a little bit of cabin fever. .. after four straight months of snow, I'm ready for summer!" Okay-I stand corrected. It sounds like we ALL are looking forward to sumn1er." How nice to receive such a newsy (and well punctuated!) email. .. thank you for taking the extra time with your message! From snow fields to oil fields-here comes a report fr<짜n the great state ofTexas. Rachel (Schreier) Schewe writes that "Charlie and I are fine down h ere in Dallas." She notes that Charlie has thus far flown a successful course at American Airlines, though times are turbulent in
