haven't seen her much since then, but
she was cool enough to go out of her
way to get in touch with me through a
mutual friend, after all these years. That
kind of outgoing-ness says a lot for a
person, if you ask me! From what I can
tell, Lesley seems to be refreshingly in
touch with herself -- enough so to know
that she doesn't have to have it all

League stress factory, let me be the first
to say that patience like that is a
remarkable sign of maturity and good

person; "Lesley is fun and
interesting, a good conversationalist,
and has an excellent taste in
friends."
definitely one of my favorite coffee
buddies. I would like to name her as
my very own goggle-wearing, bike-
riding heroine. I think she is the
bee's knees, and I only wish I could
see her a lot more often than I do.
However, I hope for a great deal of
Providence-New York-Philadelphia love!
way ever. I can hear it inside my head
right now - "HA!" It's like having a
personal head-Lesley. Whoa.
And of course, she's randomly amazing
(that's like magically delicious, only
different).
