Hey Doc, I'm travelling to California in August and San Francisco is on my list of places to go. Just wondered if you could point me in the right direction with regards to where to go and what to do whilst I'm there? And I was also maybe hoping to meet you to see if you live up to your awesome reputation!

Hellooooo, everyone.

What a long, strange trip it's been.

I am member #298. I registered 5/27/2001. Since I registered, I
*Moved from SF to Michigan
*Became a doctor
*Game out as gay
*Moved from Michigan to NYC
*Became a pediatrician
*Moved back to SF
*Started and quickly ended a fellowship in Adolescent Medicine
*Met a wonderful man
*Got a new job as a pediatrician...and its my dream job.
*Got two wonderful dogs, our "kids."
*Got promoted to boss of my clinic
*Got legally married

Along the way, I met a lot of HoPers in person in the UK, in the US, and in Australia and NZ (including the great Malcolm himself).

And then round about 2008...the boards fell asleep.

Time to wake them up.
