what's the big picture?

I emailed someone I know in Seattle on Thursday morning as I hadn't heard from her since last spring. She had said then that she was thinking of moving to Oregon, so I was just wondering what was up in her life.
I didn't get an email back from her until Saturday; but on Thursday afternoon, hours after sending the email to her, I picked up my snail mail from the post box downstairs, and there was a letter from someone I know in Eugene about Breema courses for 2007. On the back of the envelope, the Seattle friend had written a little note saying hi and that she was now living with this friend in Eugene!!!

the girl next door

On Wednesday evening, I was watching the national news on Global TV. They had a story on whether it was safe for Canadians to vacation in Mexico and a spokesperson for the travel industry came on camera to say that travel is perfectly safe. As soon as I saw the spokesperson and heard her voice, I knew she was the 3 year old girl next door when I was 3 years old in Montreal West. Then her name appeared on the TV screen which was total confirmation that it was her. I last saw her when I turned 4 and we moved to Shawinigan Quebec. I Googled her and it sounds like she has had a successful career in the travel-tour biz and lives in Toronto.
