It is always nice to know you are missed
And it must be much sweeter to hear it from someone famous.
A few times in my many relocations and job changes, I have heard from a former co-worker or office mate about how things are not the same without me there. At Johansson, I think the actual phrase was, "It sure is quiet without you around." I think they said the same thing about me at Seton Hill, too. I take that to mean that I am missed :-)
My sister Megan recently parted ways with the Pittsburgh Pirates organization and has found a much better situation at the corporate headquarters of 84 Lumber. She recently emailed one of her buddies at the Pirates, legendary broadcaster and Voice of the Pirates himself Lanny Frattere. She wanted to know if he needed anything for the upcoming Mendelssohn Choir outing to the ballpark where Bob Page is going to be honored. Lanny knows Bob personally as well because his wife is also a member of Mendelssohn. He emailed back:

Megan...I am excited about the opportunity to honor Bob. Are you singing the concerts this weekend? I sure miss you in the Pirates office. What are you doing?

Megs---Kate and I were talking at Lunch--there may be some options Sewickley way that will be city convenient and 84 convenient that will avoid that parkway mess altogether.
Corbin just wants to rope you into stuff at her church. :-)
I work at Southpointe, and some of my coworkers live in Carnegie. They seem happy there, although I'd think you'd have to look around. Some parts of Carnegie are kinda dumpy. :) That wouldn't be too far for you to commute, although it would involve the Parkway a bit, but not for too long. You could get off 79 in Canonsburg and pick up 519, which would take you straight out to 84.
Bridgeville would be a nice option, too. Two of Jen's and my fellow Seton Hill acquantances live there. Actually, if you see anything nice with a McDonald address, that might be worth checking into, since it can be somewhat deceptive. One of our friends is just off the Bridgeville exit of 79, but for some reason she's got a McDonald address, even though the actual town of McDonald is a ways away from her. Bridgeville /McDonald would allow you to bypass the parkway by taking 50 (I think it's 50) to Canonsburg and then picking up 519.
