Six Degrees

The Pacific East Mall and the 99 Ranch Market has become a significant hub of Asian-American social activity. Went with mom and dad for lunch and groceries. Was eating at the VH Noodle House when we ran into Lawrence and his brother Alex. Lawrence just got back from Maine(!). Looked for mom inside 99 Ranch Market and found her talking to Nancy Lin's aunt in front of the seafood aisle, there with Nancy's mom. I didn't even know that mom and Nancy's aunt knew each other. Apparently Nancy's in Boston for school and is coming back on the 22nd. And as we were picking a few pastries from Sheng Kee when we ran into the aunt, who was there to pick up some takeout for a quick meal before she flies back to Taiwan. All in all, that was way too much polite conversation for one afternoon.
