old friends

it's weird. I've been hanging online a bit more lately, and suddenly i'm running into people i haven't talked to in at least a couple years. These are people i used to chat with for hours at a time night after night. I guess what makes it seem weird is that it's only like one or two people out of a massive group. I have the list of my contacts from 7 years ago, back when the majority of my life was spent online, and it's like 50 people long. Since i've been back online i've reconnected with like 4 of them. That's less than 10%. So where'd everyone go? well obviously they've developed things to do. After all i my self had disappeared for extended periods of time , popping above radar only now and again on my infrequent periods of internet access. Just strange i guess.
