Today Aidan took me to KQED, where they held a retirement party for me. We had to go way downtown. I haven't been downtown in a very long time. It's changed.
Dozens of people showed up and said wonderful things about me that I am not sure I actually deserve. But I tried to let in what they said. I'm trying to get better at that. Most special to me, I was given so many hugs from so many people, which mean more to me than words. I love hugs.
It helped me realize that the last six years of my career probably mattered. We did a lot of stories, great stories. Those reporters I worked with, especially on investigative stories, did very difficult work.
I am just glad Aidee was there with me.
