Lately I have been getting all kinds of emails from people I haven't talked to in years. It seems these friends are really interested in my health - all they are sending is links to sites offering prescription meds. A little bit impersonal, but beggars can't be choosers. I mean, I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth or anything because I know I can't have my cake and eat it, too.
The other day my former secretary from Missouri sent an email to everyone in her contact list apologizing for sending out an email like that - apparently it wasn't actually her. I guess that explains why I get so many of those emails from some girl from college I talked to like 5 times. That situation is far less awkward now. Another benefit to that email is that I replied to her and we caught up with one another after having been out of touch for a few months. That was nice and somewhat unexpected turn of events... after all, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.
