So, April, who by some strange extension we’re just going to call one of my relatives (Aunt-in-law-in-law or some such) had a wedding a couple of weeks ago to James, whom she met at work. So far so good. Now, Angela and I go to the reception, with much of the rest of my family… all what you’d expect.<\/p>\n
Fast forward to nowish… Angela works at the vet clinic with a receptionist named Jennifer, who was talking to her about one of her past best friends’ wedding recently. Of course, you guessed, Jennifer was good friends with April (and April’s first husband Jeremy). NOW, it seems, Jennifer is married to Amy (Aprils Sister)’s youngest son (Michael)’s father (um… Tracey?). Got that? Right. And she works with Angela.<\/p>\n
I can’t keep up.<\/p>\n
In OTHER, semi-related news, I went out to Dutch’s Tavern for the annual pre-Thanksgiving debauchery. Pete, Heather, Christina and that crowd we expected to see, and of course Kimmet and Doug were playing. Now, Pete I’ve known since 2nd grade, so that’s how we know that crowd. What I didn’t expect was to bump into Gail, Eric, Patty, Chris… people I met through Neisja (who was my roommate in DC for a while, that I met originally through Atherton folk… try to keep up). Turns out they were there too, which is always a pleasant surprise (well, Neisja wasn’t there — her friends were).<\/p>\n
Not bad, not bad. BUT, it turns out they were there with Christina<\/i> and company. Apparently some of them play Volleyball with Pete, Christina, and that crowd. So, again, I’ve got people introducing me to lots of people that I’ve already met AGAIN, in good ole Louisville.<\/p>\n
What I REALLY WANT, is some way to keep track of all of this. Yeah, I’m a geek, so I mean, like, graphically<\/i>. Back when sixdegrees.com was working they had good tools if you could get everyone to sign up, but for people that aren’t on your social-site-of-the-month it’d be nice to keep track locally. Does anyone know of a good contact manager that handles circuitous relationship paths? No? Me neither. But hopefully it makes for a good story.<\/p>\n So, April, who by some strange extension we’re just going to call one of my relatives (Aunt-in-law-in-law or some such) had a wedding a couple of weeks ago to James, whom she met at work.
