Friends and fun
So I never did get around to posting about Bryn Mawr or Boston, and here I already am in Chicago. The short version is that I'm having a very nice trip, filled with seeing friends old and new -- so many people at Bryn Mawr, quality time with A and hanging out with her friends, meet ups with two separate college friends and then the marvelous ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
tarysande in Boston. Then today was basically a continuous meet-up, going from one friend to the next: lunch with ![[tumblr.com profile]](https://www.tumblr.com/favicon.ico)
rhiannon42, coffee and a walk around with tanyad, and dinner with one of my best friends from BMC, who lives in the Chicago suburbs and whom I hadn't seen for several years. (Seven years? Can it really have been that long? I think it may have been for another Chicago wedding, back in 2007. Wow.) Then tomorrow is lassarina's wedding, and I know several folks who will be there, and the connections just keep coming.
I like a lot of things about traveling, but maybe one of the best things is that I know people in so many parts of the world, such that almost everywhere I go, there will be a friend there. That's pretty amazing. And you know, in part, I have the Internet to thank for that. Thank you, Internet, for creating such a wonderful wide network of amazing people to be in my life.

I can't say this quite yet, but there are quite a few people I know around now, and I agree 100%. The internet is miraculous, and I'm so thankful it exists for this reason alone.
