Mad, Small, World

While I procrastinate the Biology homework, there is a "Small World" story I must share:

The semester begins and I find myself in a Biology lecture. At some point I also find myself speaking with a gal that I know I've met before, but cannot place her name or face. Just before I ask, "Do I know you?" the lecture begins and I'm cut short.

After class this girl turns to me and says, "I was going to ask you, have we met before?" Ha! I knew it. Thus begins the exchange of class schedules- maybe we've had a class together?

I'm staring at her face trying to place a context around her familiarity. All of a sudden lightening (or the hand of God, who knows) strikes my brain and I burst out: "Do you know a Lisa?"

My question is met with squeals of recognition and lo and behold this girl is a friend of a friend who I've not seen in ten years. How in the hell I was able to divine her identity out of a fog of vague memories is beyond me. But I'm willing to accept the gold star for doing so.

Updates on the reunion with said friend to follow.
