Not the way I wanted to start my journey to SQL Konferenz. Our beautiful adorable old cat Okocha decided this morning was the time to say goodbye and join her buddy Jake and watch the world from a different place.

Sat on a train, tears on my face, trying to fix an incident, getting funny looks, can't concentrate. It was her time, she was a very old lady who was a constant by my wife's side when she has been struggling. She will be greatly missed.

@sqldbawithbeard I don’t even know what to say - other than I’m terribly sorry for you and your wife.

@SQLMonkeyNYC Thank you.
