It's been a while, I know

Hey there.. Long time no see.. Things were very busy the last few weeks, what with the holidays and everything. But, now, that's all over, and we're back to January, patiently waiting for spring. I just have to tell you the freakiest thing that happened today.

I decided to go to Wal-Mart after work, so I took a right out of work, instead of my usual left. I was faced with a very, very, very long line of traffic, so I turned around, and decided I could get my catfood at the Rite Aid store much easier. So, I headed for home, and the store. I picked up some cat food, and as I was going past the photo counter, a young man said "Hey, can you come over here for a minute?" I looked confused. "I know, it's a wierd thing to ask, but can you come behind the counter and look at this for a minute? I think this is you in the picture." Well, sure enough, I went behind the counter, and there, on the screen, is a picture of me, taken by one of his friends. I look totally different, but it's definitely me, in front of a huge building. wow. Then I noticed someone else I knew in the pictures, and it all clicked together. This was before 2001, the kid couldn't pin it down any further, but a friend of mine and I took our sons on a field trip with the class, to the island of the Statue of Liberty in New York. The building I was standing in front of, was the big immigration musuem. What a flippin' small world. If I had continued to Wal-Mart, I never would have gone into Rite-Aid. The kid said "That's amazing timing." So true, so true! Just incredible..

Until tomorrow.
