Someone I knew

Weirdness. On Easter weekend, my brother was up in NYC visiting so I took him around. We ended up on St. Mark's Place since he was interesting in getting some cds and a souvenir for his girlfriend.

We went into a store and behind the counter was a guy I used to know. I am not sure if he used to work at the comic shop but I knew his face! And from the look in his eyes, he knew my face.

It was weird because I rarely bump into people I used to know anymore. To be honest, I used to hate bumping into people I knew in high school because I always got the feeling that they were surprised that I wasn't more successful. Sad, huh?

I kinda wish I said something to him. Just to put a name to his face. This Friday I expect to be in the city. Maybe I will go back there and get his name for my memory's sake.
