facebook

Over the past few weeks, I've been totally addicted to facebook. I was having a blast reconnecting with old friends from high school and college and found it an easy way to keep up with current friends. It was great -- until tonight.

I got the shock of a lifetime. My high school debate partner found me, and we chatted for a while. At one point in our lives we spent a TON of time together, but hadn't talked since high school.

Long story short, seeing his picture has COMPLETELY FREAKED ME OUT. Before tonight, if you would have put three pictures in front of me and asked me which one was Rick, I can honestly tell you that I would have picked the wrong person.. He doesn't look remotely similar to the kid I knew in high school. If I would have passed him on the street, I wouldn't have even done a double take, and this is saying something. He was my debate partner in high school. We spent HOURS together. Literally. And today, I wouldn't have even recognized him.

Wow... that's all I can say. There are no words. Literally none.
