  1. The Accidental Phone Call

    LovePhone by kmls

    She misdialed a number, she said,
    but not really.

    So we reminisced about old times,
    the good work we did together,
    where our coworkers are,
    what our children are doing.

    Organizations end,
    but relationships don’t have to.
    I can do better at staying connected.

    I can be more intentional,
    while at the same time
    knowing that
    on this journey
    there are no
    accidental phone calls.

  2. When I was a teen in the late 80s in New Brunswick, I was friends with a Jehovah’s Witness girl named Julie Nahornov. She had a sister named Mona. She introduced me to all sorts of fun music and made me my first mix tape. She moved away to Alberta, I think, where her dad Nick had a horse ranch. They harvested horse piss for birth control pills or perm solution, I think. I’ve been trying for years to locate her, but no luck. I hope she’s doing well. #MissedConnection #OldFriend #Memories
