the power of LJ
So I'm in Au Bon Pain by Kendall Square waiting for the woman with whom I was scheduled to have a lunch meeting, when a woman already in the dining area approaches me.
"Excuse me," she says. "Are you on LJ?"
"Er, yeah..."
"I'm gem225."
Yeah, it was pretty awesome. I knew she lived in Cambridge, and she knew I was coming to MIT this semester, but still, dude, what are the odds? She was meeting someone else, so we just chatted for a minute and then met up with our respective people after exchanging phone numbers. I'm so glad she came up to me and asked!
