The other night while waiting to eat at a local restaurant, a woman waiting in line started talking to me.  And, she seemed to know who I was.  But, unfortunately, I didn’t know who she was.

I always find this to be embarrassing but there is nothing that I can do to prevent it. I introduced my wife to her thinking that she would repeat her name, but no such luck.  She asked me if I still lived near by and I said yes.  Then I asked her where she was living these days.  When she told me, I immediately knew who she was.

She was some one that I worked with in Lansing for 2 months 5 years ago.  Imagine that, me not expecting to see someone from Lansing eating in a restaurant in Lowell.  Plus, she had lost quite of bit of weight and changed her hair color.  Why can’t people just introduce them selves again just to be on the safe side.
