It probably isn’t all that random since someone that I sort of know is the recipient. Felt food just the same. I also gve the waitress a 30% tip on my birthday so that’s 2 in one week.
I contacted her on myspace yesterday and so we are just now beginning to catch up. I was afraid to reach out but I am so glad I did. If anyone else is longing to reconnect with an old friend you’ve missed—do it.
