Day 83 - Small World

Today Tara and I hung out for a bit after work at our friend Sean's apartment. As we were walking over, I commented on how close he lives to my parents. "I used to babysit a couple of kids on your block!" I said.

As we approached his house, I realized that he lived in the same building as the family that I babysat for about 10 years ago. 

We walked inside and I noticed that layout was exactly the same as the downstairs unit, where I spent many late nights playing games and watching movies. When we walked out to his back porch, I heard a familiar voice. 

I had a brief reunion with the family. William, who I'd started babysitting at 3 months old, looked like he was about 6 feet tall. Jessica, his younger sister, also had grown about 2 feet since I'd last seen her.

I said my goodbyes, and the three of us headed back in. When you spend your whole life in a city, it just gets smaller and smaller every year.
