Well, that's how the song goes, but so far I've mostly spent time catching up with my old buddies. I guess that's what happens after you spend a year in NY meeting billions of people.
2 weeks ago was a dinner with a bunch of the girls I used to dance with. I at one point was a ballerina. That one point lasted give or take 19 years. We were missing 2 from our 'group,' but the once-a-year dinner was a great time for catching up.
Wednesday night was a similar event, since I decided to attend my old dance studio's recital. I watched the 1st (and only number) my best friend Alison was in, before high-tailing it to an amazing concert! We saw Brahms, Passion Pit, and Tokyo Police Club!!! It was fantastic! I will admit that Techno-beat dance music is normally not my thing. However, live it turns out, they are not synthesizing nearly as much as I thought! Actually, the lead singer in Passion Pit really does have a falsetto that sounds just like the recorded versions. Go figure.
Last night was yet another catch up time with a few classmates from my high school. We ate dinner, listened to a live jazz band, and got caught up (on the mostly uneventful) stages in our lives.
All of the above was fun, but I always wonder what a lot of people from my past are doing and where they are? It's often funny when the encounters of reconnection occur. Coming home I did not expect nearly so many people to be passing through and permanently living here. As they say, 'It all happens for a reason?'
