Let me remind you that months go by between when I send this in and when it's printed. That means that if news about your promotion appears in here and you have just been cruelly downsized, or I mention that you recently ran into so-and-so at the Louvre but so-and-so has been on France's Most Wanted list for weeks, it is really not my fault so I don't want any flamin' e-mail from you. Thanks. . . . If you have been cruelly downsized, you might want to call Anne Duhaime Mainolfi, who has started her own consulting firm specializing in, among other things, workplace change and re-engineering. Anne and her husband, Daniel, live in Suffield, Conn., with their daughter, Emily, 2-1/2. Their second child was due in late January. . . . Kevin Mead and his wife, Susan, live in Princeton, N.J. Kevin was recently upsized to a vice president position at Macy's. . . . Chris Parker e-mailed me in August and posed this interesting query: "Where were those of you who wimped out and blew off the 10-year reunion?" Chris and his wife, Heather, live in Winchester, Mass., and Chris just celebrated 10 years with NYNEX in Boston. He stays in touch with Greg Beatty, who recently moved to Jakarta, Indonesia. Guess we know why he blew off the reunion. . . . News from classmates in the South and West. Laura Lane works as an instructor in Jacksonville, Fla. . . . Kelly McPhail Mendez writes to report that her adorable daughter, Kristin, has gone from a sweet little baby to a "temper-tantrum-throwing toddler." That was six months ago, so maybe little Kristin is tantrum-free now. Kelly and her husband, Larry, live in Coppell, Texas. . . . David Quillen is a faculty member in the department of family medicine at the University of South Alabama. He and his wife, Amy, had a baby boy, Michael, in May. David writes, "Yes, Alabama does have a coastline. Please come visit." Then he writes either "Colby people are scarce down here" or "Colby people are scared down here." It was hard to tell from his handwriting. (Speaking of handwriting, Suzanne Swain Masiello knows hers is bad, but not that bad. In August, her son's name was incorrectly listed as Stark instead of Mark. Maybe he could apply to Colby twice!) . . . Arlene Kasarjian and her husband, Dean Soultanian, live in Westwood, Mass., with their daughter, Elizabeth, 1. Arlene is an attorney and prosecutes child abuse and neglect cases for the Department of Social Services in Boston. . . . Meanwhile, in Melrose, Mass., Jessica Flood Leitz is happy to be home with her two sons, Keegan, 6, and Nils, 3. She and her husband, Christopher, are expecting their third child in April. But Jessica isn't happy about describing her occupation as "homemaker," which she thinks is horrible. Any suggestions. . . . Someone should ask Jim Monahan, husband of Lila Hopson Monahan, if he has any suggestions. He is a "homemaker" and caretaker of their 2-year-old daughter, Cassandra, while Lila is a pediatrician in private practice. They recently moved from Denver, Colo., to Sterling, Mass. . . . Mary Lou Kopas has made a career change and is now studying to become a nurse-midwife while also caring for sons Carson, 3, and Dexter, 1. She and her husband, Chuck Caldart, live in Arlington, Mass. . . . September was quite a month for Amy (Lumbard '88) and Guy Holbrook. Within the space of days Guy passed his C.F.A. exam and Amy gave birth to their daughter, Sarah. Guy apologized for wimping out on the reunion but hopes to see everyone at the next one. . . . "I've left Pittsburgh," proclaims Mark Leondires. He's moved to the D.C area to work for the National Institutes of Health. . . . "Except for the long hours and the low pay it's the greatest job in the world!" extolls David Mace, who is referring to his job as a reporter for the Times-Argus in Montpelier, Vt. . . . "These class notes are wrapped!" shrieks class correspondent Wendy Lapham Russ. Keep writing. See you in a few months.
