So, yesterday, I occasioned to be in Wallingford, CT for what turned out to be a surreal and serendipitous turn of events. I was in town for a job interview at the high school I went to and happened across several of my own former classmates, all of whom were in town for the same purpose. We caught up, reminisced during the campus tour, and very ( Read more... )
