life is surprising

I've had a two surprising things happen to me in the past few days - all because of this beautiful thing called the internet.

The first was that I reconnected with an old friend from high school - through myspace.com... what a crazy beast myspace is. I went to prom with Nathan my freshman year of high school... in fact we grew up together - went to the same grade school, I was constantly at his house since I was best friends with his sister growing up. But we had lost contact for about 10 years until I unexpectedly found his profile on myspace. And so, we have reconnected via e-mail... what a great surprise this is! Glad I found you again, Nathan!

The second - I had a great conversation with Colin via gmail's chat system... Trisha, you were right that gmail is the coolest thing ever. So, last night at 12:30 AM I sat on my couch and talked to Colin for over an hour while he sat at his desk in his office in Macleod Ganj, Inda at 12:00 in the afternoon. Amazing... half a world away. Thanks, Colin, for the late night chat - we'll have to do it again sometime!

And so, I enter this day wondering what else God has up His sleeve...
