Small World

On the way out to teach this class, I ran into a coworker from the last company I worked with. He actually used to be my boss. He sat in front of me on the plane from PHL to SFO, so that was cool. It’s always nice to be with someone you know in an airport – you can leave your stuff with them while you go to the restroom.

Then, on the way back home, flying out of LAX, I saw in the distance someone I thought I knew. I figured it couldn’t be him, so I let him walk away. Then I thought “If that’s him and I didn’t chase him down, I’ll be mad”. So I followed him, and yes, it was a friend we knew from PA, who moved to IN years ago. We’ve kept in touch, but it was great to run into him by chance like that.
