Matt's Story
Life
Hi, Everybody--
Thanks for checking in. I'd post a picture if a) I knew how and b) I thought anybody would really want to have a look at me. Perhaps I'll ask my wife, Jacqueline, to post one, since she's more technically apt than I.
So, my life in a nut-shell, working backwards: this year, Jacqueline and I had our first child, Ariel. She's 7 months old now and pretty darn cute.
Last year's highlight: Jacqueline was pregnant (natch). Hyperemisis was her nemesis. Oh, and one of our cats put both of us in the hospital.
Year before that: Jacqueline and I bought our first house, here in sunny Santa Cruz. Love it; never thought I would.
Year before that: Jacqueline and I got married down in Santa Barbara; honeymooned on the Mayan Riviera.
Year before that: Jacqueline and I moved to Santa Cruz, renting a townhouse by the Harbor.
Year before that: got engaged (yeah, to Jacqueline).
Year before that: officially became a "Cat Guy" when I took care of Jacqueline's Siamese cat, Rambo, for the summer.
Year before that: met Jacqueline after a sunny round of golf. That was a good day.
Year before that: lived in a really crappy one-bedroom apartment in Mountain View. Lived the bachelor's life (weeks of loneliness and despair interspersed ...Expand for more
with dizzied moments of-- well, the opposite of that).
Year before that: lived in an apartment in Belmont with a couple of friends from law school. Fond memories of the Academy Awards...
Year before that: Lived with my bro in Belmont; got my first real job, at a law firm. Still work there...
Year before that: graduated from law school, passed the bar.
Year before that: attended law school at Santa Clara U; did some work at a local law clinic.
Year before that: same; taught Kaplan classes-- good times...
Year before that: three-month backpack trip through Europe; started law school.
Year before that: graduated from Cal.
Year before that: wondered if I was ever going to graduate from Cal; had surgery on my jaw; first man in history to hit on a woman with his jaws wired shut-- and succeed! If only temporarily...
Year before that: spent the summer in D.C. as an intern for Barbara Boxer; decided I could probably wear shorts after all.
Year before that: moved into a flat with Laura Tollen (later to be joined by Stephanie Kirby) off Telegraph Ave. in Berkeley.
Year before that: tried to survive the first year of college.
Year before that: graduated from SRHS.
I think that brings you up to speed. See ya'll at the reunion!
