I got an honest "I didn't recognize you at first" today from someone I haven't seen since last summer. "I wondered who that was in Dave's office," he said.

Oh that is so cool! I still get lost periodically when I go out with friends. I'm not as big as they expect. :)

And serious congrats. That's awesome.
