Time on the internet involves reading news, listening to music, watching shows, researching articles, scanning gossip, coveting clothes.... and, once-in-a-blue-moon, learning about people from my past.
My high school self needed to know about the brilliant wild-child 16 year old boy who came from a destructive home that amused and frustrated me to no end....

My college self wanted to know about the crush that colored all my college relationships....
Married and father to a beautiful baby boy.
My 20-something self wanted to know about the former boss who valued profit over all things.....
Almost 70 and shilling products at conventions.
If you had asked me how things turned out for all these people, my guesses and the google-reality would be a match.
Part of me feels satisfied to know and part of me will miss the fantasy of thinking, "I wonder what ever happened to......"
