I got a random call last night from somewhere near Long Beach. This was odd. Then this morning I received an SMS phone message.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out that I&#8217;ve been tracked down (not that I&#8217;m very hard to find online) by recently new member to LiveJournal <a href=\"http:\/\/nightskye12.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">nightskye12<\/a>. Who for the sake of short hand we will call IV. (I try not to out names until people have done so themselves)<\/p>\n<p>For those of you who know that I sometimes rant on people who haven&#8217;t known me for more than say 4-5 years&#8230; A little history.<\/p>\n<p>I met IV my 2nd year of college. And this was the first time I went to college, so let&#8217;s say&#8230; 1987. (Yes kids that is 17 years ago, well 17 as of late August) He pretty much became my best male friend at College. I&#8217;d say best overall, but he&#8217;s probably tied with &#8220;C&#8221; which was probably the only issue I ever got annoyed at him about \ud83d\ude09 (And if you can&#8217;t map out this one in your head you&#8217;ve never been in a friend triad.<\/p>\n<p>IV was (hell, probably still is) a killer actor from Long Island. The stories that I could go on about are about 4 years of fun. From Daniel to Roni Rolls Runs to Little Shop to Betsy (rolls eyes), there was AEIRAC (or however he eventually decided to spell his name) there was Gengo and Haiton (I&#8217;m covering my eyes just thinking about this &#8220;Gengo, Gengo, he&#8217;s staring at your sword!&#8221;) Thumbs up in the wading pool and the mistake of repeating it on a TV show without remembering the wading pool. The list goes on.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I haven&#8217;t heard from IV in probably 7-8 years. He&#8217;s now married. I&#8217;m going to be married as well soon. I figure we have a load and a half of catch up to do.<\/p>\n<p>For those keeping track: (Myself included) The people I am still in contact regularly (or recently) in order of having met them:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/echomoontide.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">echomoontide<\/a> 1984 (20 yrs)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/nightskye12.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">nightskye12<\/a> 1987 (17 yrs)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/fiannaharpar.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">fiannaharpar<\/a> 1988 (16 yrs)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/schnookiemuffin.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">schnookiemuffin<\/a> 1994 (10 yrs)<\/p>\n<p>Now if I could only locate Patrick, Kristie, Ken, Marie or Martin. That&#8217;d be awesome.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-1039\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2004\/03\/24\/between-attacks-of-busy-lj-strikes\/?share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-1039\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2004\/03\/24\/between-attacks-of-busy-lj-strikes\/?share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-1039\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2004\/03\/24\/between-attacks-of-busy-lj-strikes\/?share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lordandrei.com\/blog\/2004\/03\/24\/between-attacks-of-busy-lj-strikes\/?share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\" ><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A wise man one said, &#8220;All roads lead from LiveJournal&#8221; No wait, that one wasn&#8217;t from a wise man; that one was from me.
