It's a Blog World, After All

It's not unusual to occasionally run into someone who's been featured on the blog before, especially in my neighborhood, but this morning I ran into <u>four</u> former Tattoosday subjects. So, out of sheer laziness and the desire to share these encounters, we'll be revisiting these old posts.<br /> <br /> First, I ran into Melanie, whose Marilyn Monroe tattoo appeared earlier this year here.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk1nTvbhMAfvcNJZDQWM_4ivXQQQLXy2IwCbv76t86KqXTJfyX2bRPr_1iCHNMCXHipyoPaMpZf3QvblOuHiUAlIuvGIrGSlbPYkl36L7IkyRWUDHI_RKQql3xEJrjtNJLU1_39iiVxtE/s1600/Marilyn.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk1nTvbhMAfvcNJZDQWM_4ivXQQQLXy2IwCbv76t86KqXTJfyX2bRPr_1iCHNMCXHipyoPaMpZf3QvblOuHiUAlIuvGIrGSlbPYkl36L7IkyRWUDHI_RKQql3xEJrjtNJLU1_39iiVxtE/s400/Marilyn.jpg" width="248" /></a></div><br /> I spotted her where I first met her, in the laundromat. We were chatting when Sandra walked by and said hi. I also met Sandra in the laundromat back in 2009. Her tattoo was featured here.<br /> <br /> Then, I ran into James and . James was also a laundromat encounter, although his son went to school with my youngest daughter, so we had seen each other around the neighborhood a lot. Today I ran into him about a block from the laundromat. James was here on Tattoosday in our second post, back in 2007! It's worth checking out here, just to get a perspective of what the site was like "back in the day."<br /> <br /> James was walking with his girlfriend, Jeanette, who I met on the subway in 2009, and featured here. What's remarkable is that, at the time, James and Jeanette were not a couple, and I only learned they were together almost a year later, when I ran into James and he told me that his girlfriend had been featured on the site as well.<br /> <br /> <br /> <div class="MsoNormal"><br /> </div>
