Odd encounters of the highschool kind 

# posted by Supreme Monkey Overlord @ 2/26/2007 09:00:00 PM

I had an interview this morning at a place called Teleflex systems, they make idfferent kinds of hose and stuff but i bumped into someone there. Ryan Layhee. a few of us played football with him in highschool but i was totally caught off guard seeing him today. i was given a list people people i would be seeing at the interview and his name was one it but i just never made the connection until i saw him. It was akward at first, he was interviewing me and he is hte engineering manager there. after a few minutes everything was cool and we got over the "didn't we go to high school togeather?" thing out of hte way. i have to say he has certainly gotten his act togeather there and is doing quite well. he's married with a kid, has slimmed down a bit and is balding a little. the whole thing was very professional and went smoothly. it was just really akward seeing him and haveing to interview for a job from someone who i kind of know.

yesterday i helped aisling move into a new appartment. she moved out of her moms house and into an apartment off of randolph rd. she's moving in with this kid she knows from back in the day whose girlfriend is moving out after they broke up. i don't approve of the whole thing and this kid and the appartment are totally skechy but she's stubborn til the bitter end so its what she wants. anyway, the skechy kids ex-girlfriend is also someone we went to highschool with, her name was Mel and she had kind of thin black hair, a little white trash-ish and thats all i really know. i don't know her last name so i can't provide anymore info. we bumped into her while she was leaving and we were moving in and we shared one of those, "oh shit i know you but i can't figure out why or from where" kind of looks. then i asked the skechy kid if she lived in haddam and he said yes and i had gone to school with her. that sort of solved that.

either way i've bumped into two people from back in the day in the last two days and both were a little akward. for some reason i feel as though these types of encounters are going to keep happening and in some regards they don't happen enough.

i know i've mentioned it before, but i'm well over due for a baseball artical. and spring training has started. i'm giddy.

if that kid's ex-girlfriend was melanie white then as i recall you have every right to think he's one sketchy dude. wasn't she one of our resident crack whores? or maybe it was heroin, hence the thin black hair...i dont know.

Name is familiar but i cant remember the face. That situation w/ Ais does sound sketchy. I wouldnt be surprised if she starts cheating on you with sketchy kid.
