Much to my astonishment, I received a card from an old friend Friday. I was very sad when I lost touch with this person, and haven't heard from her in ten years.
A few months ago, I finally figured out the correct spelling of her last name through some mad websearching skillz and looked her up on Google. I sent off a letter (not knowing if it was to the right person) and included a post office box that's checked very irregularly, just in case I was sending a letter to some sort of nut. The spoual unit visited the box last night and brought back the card.
She seems to be as sorry to have lost touch with me as I was to have lost touch with her, which greatly relieves my mind. (You'd hate for these feelings to be one-sided.) I really feel all weird and emotional about this, I shared a great deal with this woman when I knew her, and haven't seen her in so long and really have missed her. I'm going to get it together, write a letter back and when I've settled down, give her a call.
All I can say is "wow".
