There are so many times throughout the year when I think about you Sara. Every summer at Yosemite, sitting with a beer at the Rose and Crown, celebrating Orphan's Thanksgiving or Christmas, or every time I drive my MSFT on the 101. But Halloween is definitely one that stands out as Sara Brown's own special holiday!
As you might remember. I hate Halloween. I hate thinking about dressing up. I hate dressing up. I hate carving the pumpkin - it's just not my holiday. BUT, you obviously LOVED Halloween and you had this knack for not letting anyone get out of the celebration. I knew every year that you were going to make me dress up and do the whole thing, but I also knew every year that you were going to make Halloween fun. From dancing to Jen singing at Goosetown, watching the drag queen's at Asia SF, partying in Sally and MOF's beautiful new house, or knocking back Kamikaze's in Los Gatos, you MADE Halloween for the rest of us. Hasn't been the same without you. (I've gone back to being the Halloween Scrooge!)
There are so many other stand-out memories that I have of you Sara, but my favourite ones are the ones that can all be described in one way - they are the times that YOU, Sara did something that NO ONE else would have thought of, let alone done, and it's those things that I will never forget...to name just a few...The Pizza Guy at my bachelorette party in Austin.... The Sweet Caroline kareoke at our wedding...the hot tub shenanigans at your Bachelorette party in Santa Monica.... these Sara initiated crazy activities are my fondest memories, as they prefectly represent who you are - someone who is all about living in the moment, and is all about having fun and making everyone smile.
We miss you and your crazy antics.... we love you.
happy birthday Sara!
