Randomness via the school directory

So, the school directory is up and running, and I went and added mine. I then noticed there were three people with BOHS as their high school. The first was a bit too old for me to know, so I click on the second, . Noticing that he only went to BOHS for two years, then went to school in Faribault, MN for two years then Berkeley… OMG It’s Scott! Random comment in his journal and friended him.

Click on the last one, . Hey, she’s my brother’s age, I wonder if I know her, read the profile “I quit working at the Game Castle…” OMG it’s Shirley! Okay, so I don’t know her as well, so no friending there, but still, powerful random.

This lines up with another random encounter that I just realized I forgot to mention. Sitting in the cafeteria at Yahoo! I noticed someone walk by who I used to work with in the computer center at Berkeley. This puts the “get up from my seat, stopping the conversation with my coworker to randomly catch up with and say hello to a random person I know walking by in the cafeteria” count to four or five.

Small world.

In another note, since I’ve got this window open, I will be heading back to my native land of Indiana for a week, starting Wednesday. Because, last I checked, they still have internet in the midwest, I should still be around, but I will not be on FFXI, as my laptop is still a Mac and, sadly, does not run it.
