So it donned on me today that in this day and age there is no excuse for not keeping up with old friends. I am not really sure what got me thinking about it but I have met so many awesome people in my so far short but great life, that it is a shame that I don't keep in touch much. Especially being a computer person by trade you would think that I would take more advantage of it. So during the next unknown amount of months that I am not really doing anything to collect my paycheck, I am going to be reaching back out to my past.

Last night I began my reach-back by contacting two good buddies of mine that are deployed to Iraq. This seems like a fairly easy task since after all we do sit in front of a computer all day when we work. However Iraq is pretty much the opposite of the US as far as time wise. When it is day there it is night here. Luckily I had the night watch and was able to have some good conversations.

Next up I will be getting back in touch with some old high school friends of mine that I really haven't talked to in about 5 years. So wish me luck as I embark on this adventure down memory lane.
