It was good to see S, and we did get to meet her sister, who was very cool.
However, as usual after these encounters, I have moved S close to the list of
people I wouldn't want to be my doctor. She's a little scatty, though of course
it's possible that at work she puts on a professional bedside
manner.
I keep in touch with so few people from high school and
before that it's actually a little odd to be able to talk to someone who remembers
Mrs. Madres, our third grade teacher, or the summer we were camp counselors, at
16, or the time we went all the way to D.C. by ourselves to visit my uncle, at 12.
Fortunately, she seems to have good memories of me at those times.
Today I'll try to enjoy lazing around, as my afternoons are
committed for the whole rest of the week -- helping teach juniors rowing
Mon/Wed/Fri and going to the dentist on Tuesday. And if I'm lucky, I can arrange
to do an alumni interview Thursday afternoon, so I don't have to do it on a
weekend.
Off to vegetate. Ta.
