A brief WTF moment
As I was driving in to work this morning (no, no photos this time) I saw this guy who looked a lot like my brother-in-law. Like a larger version of him. Considering the guy’s lack of exercise and fondness for beer, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was that size now. Anyway, it was the same goatee and wavy hair. I was thinking, “Wow, that’s a pretty amazing likeness.”
Then I looked in the passenger seat and see a girl that looks a little like my sister. I was having a WTF moment because they moved to Texas earlier this year. I would’ve really been wondering if it was them had they been driving around in anything other than an ugly old primer-grey Jeep Cherokee. The man is a car snob and wouldn’t be caught dead driving a heap like that.
Anyway, it was a weird moment. We haven’t lived in the same city since high school. We don’t have a lot in common, including zip codes. Funny thing is, I miss her about as much as I miss my mom… which is not at all. Is that weird?
