I'm playing with the LJ directory feature that they recently made available to payed users, looking for people from my hometown. I don't know why - I have no particular fondness for 99% of them. Every once in a while I just get the compulsion to find out how everyone else has turned out.

The second diary I stumbled across is someone I went to school with, probably a year or two behind me. She/he/it is apparently lab partners with a guy who was in my class.

From her/his/its friends page, I tracked down someone I do recognize.

It seems my hometown now as a Rubio's. That's about all I've learned so far. And apparently some guy I vaguely remember was deployed to Saudi Arabia on Sept. 13th.

The journal's author is a he, and his name is apparently Pat. That should give me enough to go on. Looking in my yearbook, I suspect I know who it is, given the social group he discusses.

Of course, it helps having gone to a high school with ~150 per class.

It's odd reading journals of people you don't know, discussing people you do know.

I should stop being a stalker and do something productive. Like shower.

is it only your hometown, or can you search for users from any city?

Anywhere :) My hometown was simply the most interesting target.

Sorry Jess, showering is hardly productive ;)

[therealocelot.livejournal.com]

Yes it is. It makes you not stink, and feel clean. For me, this is a necessary step before doing anything else. Therefor, it is productive, as it leads to a state of greater potential productivity.

Ok, good point. I like being clean too :)
