You know when you get those completely unexpected phone calls in the middle of your typical run-of-the-mill week days? The kind of days that almost shamefully blend into each other in a whirl of what becomes the greater part of a lifetime? (Okay, maybe that’s a little dramatic).
Still, how great to get such a call from one of my closest, childhood friends, who was in town the other day for a job interview. And the chance to spend an evening catching up over dinner at my place, meeting my wife for the first time and otherwise recollecting all those instances of being cruel to animals, blowing things up with fireworks and siblings we angered. (Righteously, of course).
Great to see you, M! And best of luck on the outcome of the local interview. Would be excellent to have you and your family close by!
