This post came about after strange coincidences. Last Saturday I received a message from a Redditor asking me about two posts too old to comment on (below). I also received an email that I had to log into m Yahoo email account or it will be deactivated. To be honest – I actually forgot I still had it, so I reset the password and logged into the account. The bulk of the mails were spam, but one stood out – Hi Alli, Annie here – how are you? in the subject line.
I called Annie a few months ago but her number wasn’t valid any more. Since we now live quite far apart it would be a mission to connect. In the email she said she had lots to share and gave me her new number and I called her right away. We spent a long time catching up and she said the fun we had together will always be remembered as the best in her life. I told her about the Reddit account and she was initially not very happy, but I said she’s welcome to read my posts and if she feels I should I will delete them.
