it's a small world after all

yet another reason to hate blind dates.
i came home the other day to a rather surprising message on my answering machine. a colleague/friend had called to tell me that a friend of a friend was a single, jewish, sociology grad-student at u of c. if you calculate the odds, i'll bet there's more than one single, jewish, sociology grad-student at u of c, but i had a hunch that this might be the same single, jewish sociology grad-student at u of c to whom my blogmate introduced me a couple of years ago. and i was right.
the last time i check there were 9 million people living in chicagoland. how did this happen?

That guy was so hot in college. Right, jo? -SM

wait, i think this is a blog first. we have never been referred to individually as single syllables before. i'm feeling a little separation anxiety.

also, my ability in college to assess hotness was clearly underdeveloped. did you meet many of the stellar individuals i dated? (mb, this does not take away from your hotness; i must have grown eyes right in time for you to walk by...)
