I'm so excited!

Facebook is a great thing.

More than a year ago, I got a message on FB, asking if I was the Eileen who went to Rutgers Newark and played sax in the band. I looked at the name, and my jaw dropped. Andy! Holy cow, Andy the sax player who sat next to me; he was a year behind me, and MAN did I have a crush on him. Very, very cute. :) He said some lovely things, like me being the one thing he has remembered fondly from college all these years.

I immediately wrote back, and we have been in touch ever since. He's married, living in Texas, and is an architect. We chat, and when he told me they'd be out east for a reunion this month, I was happy. We're going to get together, talk, visit a museum, and he and Rainer will discuss being an architect, which is Rainer's ambition. I can hardly wait!
