April and I spent tonight hanging out with an old friend of mine from high school. Sam was a guy we hung out with for only a year when I was a sophomore. Sam and his family are originally from India. Sam was a hoot when he was a kid because he was trying really hard to fit in as an American kid but he still had many traits of a kid who just got here. I always loved his family they treated us boys like we were their own kids. His dad ended up moving quite a bit due to his job. He was only in the area for a year but we got pretty close over that year. We were all bummed when his parents moved their family to Florida. I hadn't talked to Sam in over 20 years and got an email from him today and found out he was living a hour away in Jackson Mi. It turned out he was coming to Toledo for a coworkers son's baptism. We hooked up for dinner and then went over to the church and we jammed for a little while. He has been wanting to learn drums for quite some time so I told him I'd give him a quick lesson.
How cool is that. For those of you who are Real Lifers, you'll get to meet Sam one of these days as he wants to come check out one of our services.
