Last night at the DX I was shocked when I ran into a friend from college. I was even more shocked when I recognized someone from my new work at the event. To top it off, this morning I rode past my boss on my bike ride to work. I often tell my friends that its hard to meet people in Toronto, that there are so many people that its actually worse than when you live in a small town. All of this is turned on its head when I happen to run into one of the 20 people I know out of the 2.5 million sharing Toronto with me.
This morning when I recapped the events of the past 24 hours with my co-worker he said that it must be that my circle is expanding and I agree. As much as I hated my bike ride home from work this evening (a 20 minute ride became a two and a half hour work out with my superb navigation skills), with each new place I go, I discover more of Toronto and am given to opportunity to meet more people. My biggest fear about getting a new job was leaving my work friends, but I guess I needn't worry, I still have them as friends and am broadening my circle with new co-workers.
