Came into work a couple hours early (6:30 AM). After patching, I went out to breakfast. My waitress looked really familiar. Thought she looked just like this girl that stayed with the family of a high school friend. More I thought about it, the more I decided it very well could be her.
Uncharacteristcally, I asked if she knew my friend's stepdad. Her face went white, but she acknowledged she did. I grinned. Told her I whose friend I was. She had a puzzled look. Told her we were always hanging out on weekends. Things clicked and she remembered me.
Irony of ironies. This friend last I knew was living in another state. She told me he was back in town. Well, he showed up so we could chat a bit. Awesome!
Will have to drive out to timbucktu to see his family soon.
