I went to a job fair yesterday at my alma mater and am sending off a follow-up resume. This is just the email that goes with it. Any thoughts before I send it off would be appreciated:
Dear Ms. M_____,
It was a pleasure getting to speak with you yesterday at the ____ Career Fair. I very much appreciate your insights on my desire to change career paths.
Attached please see the requested electronic version of my resume.
Kindly let me know if there is any further information I can provide.
Best regards,
Trudy Booth
Thanks, guys!
A guy I work with is marrying a girl he went to school with from kindergarten up to 10 grade. They lost touch for many years, ran into each other at some alumni get together and now are very happily engaged.
You never know. My father was engaged to someone when he was 24 and she was 17. 50 or so years later (and after my mom died), he ran into her sister at a reunion and decided to get in touch. They married soon after.

Exactly the edits I would have made.

How many ladies are in this story? Miss A, engaged to your father at age 17--is this also your mom? The woman, Miss Z, that he married soon after--whose sister is she?
The head transplant reading has made my right arm tingle distractingly. Today as a workday is entirely too long.

More like, my Dad was engaged to a women (Miss A), broke it off because she wanted to settle down right away, fought in World War II, went to college, met my mom on a blind date when he was 37 and proposed almost immediately, was with my mom for almost 30 years until she died, bored himself to tears for a few years, went back to his hometown for his 50th reunion and ran into Miss A's sister, contacted Miss A (who lived in Reno!), and proposed to Miss A a few months later. It was quite a surprise since I was the only one of my siblings who had even known he had been engaged once before.
Hmmm... in the 9th grade she used to pick on me. Maybe she did have a crush on me....
She TOTALLY did!
And having someone want to set you up with their sister is definitely a vote of "you rock"!
There were several people I was really hoping would be at my high schol reunion. They were not there. Ah well.
