I heard Hotel California three times on the way home from Blackberry's house

[Funk]

OK, so I moved to the town in which I currently reside about 19 years ago. Two doors down there was another family that had a young boy whose name I will not reveal. Anyways, we hung out together on and off until this family moved out a few years later.

Flash forward to this past Saturday. I have been working at Subway for the past one and a half years. Incidentally, there is one other male employee at this Subway, and he has the same name as the boy that I mentioned earlier in this post, but that meant nothing to me until two days ago when his mom came into Subway. Now, I didn't recognize her (she looked vaguely familar), but after she mentioned that ________ doesn't make subs like I do and mentioned her husband's name, then I put two and two together.

I HAVE BEEN WORKING THE PAST 18 MONTHS WITH SOMEONE I HAVE KNOWN FOR HIS WHOLE LIFE BUT DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS HIM!

You have no idea how strange that feels, and how stupid I feel for not finding it out sooner.

Oh, and go Pistons.

Wait, he didn't recognize you either? Or just recognized that you recognized him and didn't say anything?

I think he also went a long time without knowing, but his mom recognized me and told him who I was. Apparently he told some of my co-workers this but it never got around to me. Now that I know that it is him, he sort of looks like what he looked like before (which makes sense). Still, he was blond when he was younger and now he has dark hair, much like myself.

I'm sure we've all had similar experiences but may still not even know it.

That'd be weird to find out that somebody you see all the time is someone from your past that you didn't recognize. Like Twilight Zone freaky. That could never happen to me because..... Wait a minute. That crazy hobo that always throws chicken bones at me when I pass him on the street??......



DADDY!?!?

I know. It's like travelling into the future but not at 88 m.p.h.: more like .0088 m.p.h. Much slower.

It's just weird that there is people in your life that hold no significants, yet no matter where you go (or they go) they eventually resurface. Spooky, man.
