what am i supposed to say to someone i haven't seen in 5 years? "hey, you weren't important enough for me to remember your name." i know, i have my high school yearbook, but why would i want to damage myself by reading it again?
i went to quiznos today and i saw someone i haven't seen since high school. fortunately enough for me, i still remembered her name. my first reaction was to say "hi", but then i thought "why would i want to do that to this poor girl?" i'm sure that we all have known creepy people that we would rather never think about ever again. unfortunately, if you're reading this, i am accidentally causing you to remember those people. my apologies.
what if i'm that creepy guy? i know i've changed in 5 years, but they don't know that. to them, i'm probably still the math geek who was always referred to by the first syllable of my last name. most people i went to high school with never knew my first name. when i'd tell them, they'd be shocked. "what? you have a first name? holy shit." at this stage of life, do i really want to freak them out? it's not like i was that fuckin popular.
