Renewing old acquaintanceships

This afternoon I had the pleasant experience of renewing a friendship: or more precisely a friendly acquaintanceship: I went to a seminar given by someone I hadn't seen since I was a student, almost half a lifetime away. At the time we had had several long conversations about a bunch of stuff: he was a bit older and wiser, more senior than I, and it was interesting and useful.
Funny: we both look thrumptysevix years older: he is still a little older, and seems a little wiser: we had a good conversation, on interesting and useful topics. Somehow it seemed almost like there had been little time in between.

Yours, now older and wiser too,
N.
