15 Jul Looking For Jeffrey Lynn

Finally! Fret’s over. Now what?

Today is Jeffrey Lynn’s birthday. Jeff and I grew up together in Pacoima, CA. His house was just down the block, in the second keyhole, as we used to call his cul-de-sac.

One day he told me he was going to move and that was the last I saw of him. I don’t remember any days leading up to his family’s leaving, seeing a big van come to take their furniture to their new house, nor Jeff saying goodbye. He just seemed to vanish. Aside from sharing our first name, our birthdays were just a few days apart. And every year on his I think of him.

Jeff, if you’re out there, drop me a line. Back then, I had friends move away but never without saying goodbye. Did it really happened that way?

    That’s great!!! I love that feeling of relief when you find something. Lately I was going nuts looking for some software disks. I finally found them under the printer table but then noticed the package said there was also a CD. Went crazy looking for that. It was right on my husband’s desk, I had in fact touched them, but because it was sandwiched in between *music* cds, I never thought a program cd would be there.
    The moral is don’t let your mind get in the way of your search.

    Whoa, that poor Lesie. That’s pretty disgusting what Verisign did to her web domain. And then not to give it to her when the other person turned out to be a flake.
    I think it’s still pretty high on my fret-o-meter. Is this Leslie going to sue?
