I Miss Becky

I am reading the 13th Eve Duncan book QUICKSAND and remembering when Becky and I waited for the 3rd book so anxiously back in 2000. As great minds think alike, we both bought it the first day and mailed it to the other. It's rare to be so in sync with someone you met in such random circumstances. I wish I had a picture to post, but we were friends pre-digital and my scanner hates me. I will always treasure the trip we took to Seattle for my birthday and our Vancouver get away. That was my first truly self-indulgent experience, including spa, exclusive salon, 5-star hotel and all the trimmings... I haven't lost many people in my life, and perhaps I feel her absence even more keenly for that reason.
