While attempting to get back to Japan from Minnesota, a snow storm derailed our plans and we got stuck in Chicago for a night while we waited for the next flight to Tokyo. My oldest childhood friend, Jenny, happens to live downtown and thankfully still had the same phone number. A few texts and phone calls later and Glenn and I were on a train headed towards the city to meet her at a diner for dinner! Jenny and I have met up on numerous occasions by accident, usually. When my flight from Milwaukee to Dallas got canceled while I was on a business trip, she happened to be driving to Milwaukee that night to visit friends and was able to pick me up from the airport. Another time, I saw on Facebook that she was going to DC to visit a friend and Glenn and I were able to meet her. We don't see each other very often, but it's always nice to catch up when we do. Old friends are the best like that. I'm looking forward to seeing her (I hope) in 2012 at her sister's wedding! Thanks for taking the time to see us, Jenny!
