Conversations with the past

You ever have those day when you can't help thinking about the past. For some reason this has been happening to me more and more lately. Maybe it's a getting older thing that I have quite mastered.

Anyways, it started with me thinking about ex boyfriends and where they would be now...so i google them and to be honest it's like they never existed. No trace of them whatsoever. Like I stopped seeing him and "POOF!" (but more like a "pft" sound - like when you open old spaghetti in tupperware from the back of the fridge) Gone. Ahh, wouldn't it be wonderful?

This led me to start thinking about past jobs, past bosses and past co-workers. Oh what a tangled web...I've had crappy jobs just like everyone else (cashier at fortinos and deli clerk at zarkey's being top of my list) but also jobs I've really loved. I can't say I've had many good bosses but I've had more than my share of managers on massive power/ego trips that often matched their waistlines and those poor souls shoved into jobs that don't suit them without a clue at all (you know who you are or maybe you don't what with the no clue thing). But the past co-workers are the best. I've met at least 3 great friends as a result of my previous employers.

Then there's the people you haven't heard from in years that suddenly turn up in your life again for no rhyme or reason and you realize you have nothing to say to them. Or you just don't know how to re-cap the previous decade...
