lindsaydotcomWhen I transferred from AU to CMC in my sophmore year, the only things I really regretted were leaving the Wash DC area, and leaving some friends I'd grown very close to. As tends to happen, with various moves on our parts we lost touch with each other. I've been searching for two of them for quite some time. One was Aaron, with whom I got in touch earlier this year and was fortunate enough to see him in person shortly afterwards.
The other was a gal named Sadie. Wow. What can I say about Sadie that won't sound trite or sappy? We were very, very close friends. I love her. She understands me in many ways better than any other close friends ever have. she's incredibly funny, and kind, and sarcastic as all get out, and spunky, and sassy, and smart as hell, and up for doing new things, and a million other things that I could never accurately convey in words. For six months I've been searching for her online. Now, I'm good at the Internet – if it's out there generally I can find it. But I was getting nowhere until I started searching under various other names I'd seen her associated with occasionally for writing projects (she's involved in theatre). Lo and behold I found a teeny, tiny blurb in a newsletter for a congregation welcoming their newest members Sadie and Ryan C. I more searching for his contact information and I came up with email addresses that are apparently no longer valid (boo!), and I was stuck at a dead end until just yesterday when on a whim I googled her husband’s name and came up with an article about a new play he’d written that was currently being performed at a theatre by where they live. I emailed the theatre asking (begging) them to put me in contact with him and the theatre responded with his email address. All that was left was to send out an email to him asking (begging) him to get Sadie to write back to me.
And she did.
Yay!
Happy heart. Happy, happy, happy, HAPPY HEART.
