Friendster

I've been feeling a little under the weather the last couple of days... and really unmotivated. I mean, I've been coming to work and doing my usual awesome job (and no, I'm not going to give you clues as to where I work... you think I want to get dooced, like uncle bob just did?)

I left work early yesterday, totally fuzzyheaded and unable to focus. When I got home, there was a Friendster reminder that one of my friends is having her birthday next tuesday.

Oh, poopy, I thought. Now would be an awesome time to update my friendster profile! I was at home, with access to all of our pictures stored on the computer, and I had time to spare.

So I spent a couple of hours doing that.

And guess what? Friendster actually worked! I totally got back in touch with people I haven't seen since high school. I had an hour chat with a guy yesterday that I haven't seen since graduation, I think... he's in NYC and studying to be a dentist. He seemed really excited to hear from me, and caught me up with the goings-on of all these other people whom I've thought of almost not at all in the last 8 years.

wow. It's so great to get back in touch with people you used to be close to.
