So an old buddy of mine ran into my wife at our daughters award ceremony and gave her his number to give to me. The guy used to be a singer and guitar player in my first band. He lived across the street when we were growing up.
He lived with me and my mom for a bit when his family moved away. Anyway we lost touch and last time I saw him was probably 15 years ago and quite a few before that. Last I heard he was in jail for selling
****.
So I am dreading calling him imagining he is going to want to borrow money or invest money in his drug business. Both of which I would have said no. The other option was he may have cleaned up and just wanted to hang or try another band.
Well my wife gets a friend request from him on face book. Turns out he is married now and is a born again christian. I am very happy he has turned his life around but am now dreading the call even more. Seems his whole family is born again, his mother, his wife, his sister and he went through some school and is now a minister.
Now if I call him I have to get preached at. From the guy who borrowed my one hitter and threw it out the window when a cop got behind him. (the paranoia). The same guy who asked and I gave the money to to buy a bag of weed so he could sell it as joints and we split the money. All of this when we were teenagers and early 20's.
I am dreading this call the dude is a minister now and we all know the guys who sinned the worst seem to go hard core when they fine the lord. Look at Sporty!
Anyway I will have to make the call here in the next day or so. Wish me luck. Hopefully it will be cool.
