Last night I left work and picked up my old college friend Chris at a downtown hotel and drove into Federal Hill for dinner. We’ve been meaning to get together since we connected up on Facebook a year ago. He hasn’t aged a day, looks fit and tan, and it felt like we picked up where we left off 15 or so years ago.

I’ve been getting the feeling that I should reach out and connect back up with old friends lately. I’m terrible at keeping in touch with people, and even worse at admitting that to myself. Facebook is great for that sort of thing, but there are a few folks who haven’t been lured to the dark side yet; a little google-fu will (hopefully) change that.
