Just a short post to express my happiness and amazement that I get to see my old friend Christine Holzbauer and meet her daughter Melodie later this afternoon. They're joining us for dinner with other friends and for a change I'm extending our my hospitality to her. I met her here in 1975 when she and my friend Chris Madison lived here while they were both in school at the Science Po and Sorbonne. They lived in a tiny tiny apartment in the 10th arrondissement and we were all very very poor but had a ton of fun none the less.
She's one of the smartest people I ever met save for Cassie and has been living the last 5 or so years in Dakar, Senegal, as the West African Correspondent for La Express here in Paris. She and Melodie (Christine and Chris' daughter) are back now so Melodie can attend conservatory here in Paris. The last time I saw Christine was Fall of 1977 so it's been 33 years.
Again, my circle closes making contact with people from my past who had profound effect on me.
As always, it seems I continue to live under a rainbow and again will be blessed with the presence of a dear friend and have the honor of meeting her daughter for the first time.
Love to all everywhere......*
A bientot,
Sid
