Let them

Myspace is a strange thing. I rarely use it for anything. A couple of years ago a friend invited me to join, I did, and that was about it. I probably would go several months between checking in. This was prior its explosion into the phenomenon it is now with 30 or 40 million people using it. Now, more and more, people find me, usually from high school or undergrad. But yesterday the little sister of my best friend from the first grade on through middle school (we drifted apart some in high school; different classes led to different friends, the usual) emailed me. Immediately I felt, not old, but transported back twenty years, twenty five even. She was the typical little sister and now she's married, a mom. And, of course, she's not even all that younger than me but back then she was this little thing to our eyes. Crazy.

Thought I'd found the cover image for Exit Interview but may not be able to get the image in high enough resolution. Gah. I really liked this one.
