Hello me, it's me again!
According to http://howmanyofme.com/, there are 17 other people in the world with the same name as me. And somehow, I managed to meet one of them. In this day and age with modern technology, it's really not that difficult if you stop and think about it.
It all began with an innocently mistyped email address. In my haste to email myself random thoughts and ideas (which I do from time to time), I accidentally sent it out to the wrong email address. One question led to the other, and we are now having a small and superficial email conversation. So yes, now I do know that there is an alternative me living in Silicon Valley where the weather is 60 degrees, and he knows that there's an alternative him living in Chicago where it snows relentlessly. Now, I do understand that honestly, in the scheme of things, it's really just a random coincidence. But my name isn't that common, if there's only 17 of us. And I've never ever met anyone in my life with the same name as me, so it's definitely something that needs to be exploited and explored until the novelty wears out.
Why am I talking to someone else over the internet with the same name as me? Is it because it's taken on the aura of conversing with an alternative presence in an alternative dimension? Is it because I secretly believe that we were headed for similar destinies and now I want to compare his successes with my failures?
Or maybe I'm just really, really, really, really frickin bored.
