Tonight was a surprising night.  I spoke with not one, but two people that are great friends of mine that I haven’t been able to talk to in months.  I have been trying to find Clay for months because I knew he had moved to this area, but so far had been unable to track him down.  Then in my online class, the first one of the semester, his name pops onto the screen - he is enrolled in the same class!  It wouldn’t have been so weird, but there are several of the same classes that I could have enrolled in, and I nearly didn’t take a class this semester anyway.  Then, I got a phone call from my friend Becky who has been missing since last Christmas.  In fact, a group of us spent last Christmas at a disgusting Chinese food restaurant in Laurel, MD.  I got to hear all about Becky’s exciting trips to Germany.  It was nice to hear form you both, guys.
