Blogger Stalking.

The other day, I stumbled across a blog from someone I knew in high school. I didn't know it was her blog, it just came up when I searched my high school on google. I didn't recognize her from the pictures on the blog at first, but then as I started browsing through the pictures and the postings trying to figure out why this came up under my High School, I realized that I knew her. I then began clicking on her blogging friends - realizing that I might know some of those people too. This became a small obsession and it was almost impossible to pull myself away from the computer. I started stalking all the blogs. One blog would lead to another. Beth wanted me to play a game. I was too busy. There were people that I hadn't seen in years. (10 to be exact). All these people, with kids and families, and husbands. Husbands! So-and-so had married the guy she dated senior year, only after marrying someone else and going through a nasty divorce. This one was pregnant, this one wanted to be pregnant. This one got a new pet, someone else just graduated (or their husband did). People were planning play dates and birthday parties and weddings and during all this time, life was simply going by for everyone.

I feel kind of bad for stalking and running. I sort of feel like I should post a little hello on her blog to let her know that I was there (and using it to access other people's lives). I didn't. I remained anonymous. Hooray for blogging and for my trip to "Viewmont High - Where Are They Now?"
