I had a rager of a Friday night -- THREE whole beers (spread over more than three hours) and then a night of Harbor Master on the iFriend. So I neglected my friend-deleting duties. So I owe ya two today....
Hey, girlie: You look just like you did in high school. Well done! And you have how many kids?!? Well done! Your wedding pics were precious, and I hope you're just as happy as you looked on that day. Your status updates are always positive, and liberally sprinkled with exclamation points, which is a refreshing change from many others. Well done!
But if we bumped into each other at the mall (which is unlikely, as I absolutely despise the mall), the conversation would go something like this: "Hi-i-i-i-i-i! How aaaaaaare yooooooou???" And probably a friendly hug. And then awkward stammering and shifting weight from foot to foot until one of us is brave enough to say, "Well, bye!"
And then another 15 years or so could pass until we meet again, and we'd never once think, "Whatever happened to good old so-and-so?"
...
... (shift, scratch)
... (look off wistfully)
...
...Well, bye!
