Currently having a grand time finding all these people on Facebook that I haven't seen since I was eleven at the oldest, and in a couple cases ten seeing as I turned eleven in April and we moved away from there in June. Yeeeaaaah.
I'm scared to add them as friends, but HOLY CRAP ARE THEY ALL GROWN UP. I still think of everybody as dorky little kids. Some of them are married and/or have babies or small children.
Somehow all the girls I knew turned out to be beautiful.
It's funny how all of them are basically exactly where I would put them in life at this point, based on what I thought of their eight-year-old selves when we were kids. Except for Teddy. He's more or less the opposite.
Disappointing, though, that I can't find a girl I was only friends with until we were seven, or her younger siblings. We haven't retained any mutual friends, and she's not one of the three people that shows up in search with her name (I'd recognize her, still). Sad face.
I
would add her. Genuinely interested in how she's doing. Hope she'd remember me, though, becaaaauuuuse I know most people's memories are terrible in comparison to mine. Hee hee.
One of the weirdest moments of my life was randomly seeing one of the kids in the family that served as our only neighbors on that 3000-acre farm on that dirt road at the Erie County fair of all places, when I know that he still lives in the same area that i used to, near Albany (am friends with him and his siblings on Facebook, but nobody else). Said hi and everything. That was just WEIRD.
