So a few weeks ago something really amazing happened. I reconnected with a true and long-lost friend through Facebook! Crazy! This is not to say that I’m not friends with my current Facebook friends—overall, I would say I am, but I do have a rather large group of acquaintances.

Either way, I got a friend request from this old buddy and was super thrilled. I’m talking about a person I hadn’t seen or spoken with in years but was super close with back in the day (like middle-school days). We caught up via Facebook, literally, and it was amazingly refreshing to use that application for something useful. Truly, I don’t think we would have ever reconnected without it. So thank you Facebook, for somehow letting us reconnect after all this time! Seriously, thanks.
