Pete Everett
Pete Everett is a great guy. One of those guys you can't help but like. He has a nice smile and a winning personality. I knew Pete in college, and though I did not spend a lot of time with him, I consider Pete a friend. We haven't seen one another in ten years. Occasionally he is mentioned by a mutual friend, at which point I smile and say, "Oh, Pete Everett. Great guy. I'd like to see him again some time."
And now I am back in touch with Pete Everett. Sort of.
Just yesterday, Pete reentered my life. By posting a comment on this blog. Pete self-identified as a "lurker" in response to my question as to who was taking up the bandwidth. He kindly intimated that a reprise of the concert my friend Dahna and I gave last year (which Pete unfortunately could not attend) would be a welcome thing. He affirmed my enjoyment of Guapos butter tacos by claiming to like them himself. Pete's message was friendly, genial, affirming.
But I wonder if Pete and I are actually "back in touch." Or whether something more is needed to make it so. I'm heartened by his comment, yet left unsatisfied, wanting to know more of Pete. How is he, for example? Is he married? Does he have a dog? A beard?
I must email Pete and see what I can learn. Or perhaps he'll email me.
