A good friend of mine, Bill, from my CMU days was in town, so I and another two pals from CMU (whom I never seem to see, even though we all work for the same company… ) all trucked to Ray’s for dinner. We had a great time, then headed back to Chez Erik for some South Park & Daily Show, along with some Blanton’s Bourbon.
Nothing terribly profound, but it was nice to have a good dinner with people that I went to CMU with some 10 years ago. Sure, we don’t see each other all that often as we all have our different lives, but it’s refreshing every now and then to relive some of the past and find out where the future has taken us. For example… me, a Math/CS major from CMU, is now working for Microsoft. No big surprise. The Physics major is also now working for Microsoft in the advanced hardware division. Again, not a surprise. Guess who’s been at MS the longest? That’d be the industrial design major. Go figure. 
As for Bill, who also did Physics and even went to grad school for a bit, he’s now the CIO at an architectural firm in Boston. Careers sure can be crazy at times.
