tales from an ordinary world

2001-03-18

Sometimes it hurts to be reminded of just how much you've changed - so much so that old friends' parents no longer recognize you - saying hi and hugging your colleagues, but coming to you, looking briefly confused, and quickly moving on to the person behind you. It was hardly appropriate to try and say something, though, so I just let it pass.

Maybe I took the wrong road, somewhere, and hadn't noticed.

But in any case, the day wasn't about me. I shouldn't make it sound like it was.
