A week ago I had a couple of hours to kill in between work and dancing so I ended up at a Starbucks on Harbor Blvd in Costa Mesa. It was a location I hadn't been to before but it had more inside tables than the Starbucks closer to work. Since I had so much time I sat there with my laptop hitting all my social networking sites including LoT. When I finally shut down my laptop to leave this guy who had been sitting behind me came over and said he noticed I had been on LoT and that he used to use it himself. He asked if I knew Lisa and Chris. We chatted for a bit and he said his name was Matthew. He didn't tell me his screen name and I didn't think to ask until later.

But what are the odds? I was in a Starbucks I'd never been in before, reading a website I don't look at very regularly, and someone who's familiar with LoT is sitting right behind me?

I just scanned the member list (that was a walk down memory lane) and my guess is I was talking to TheatreTech.

Tall, thin Goth?

Oh hey, is Theater Tech back in town?

Yes, he works on and off at that Starbucks. I think I spooked him the first time I showed up.

Love him... where's he been lately?

At Starbucks, apparently

Yes, he said he worked there sometimes. No goth though which threw me off a bit.

Overheard at Togo's at lunch today:

Her: You shouldn't eat so much.

Him: I'm a growing boy!

Her: Not where it counts, babe.

Well, why didn't you come over to say hi to us?
