School days
School days, school days,
Dear old golden rule days.
'Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic,
Taught to the tune of a hick'ry stick.
I got my 10 year high school reunion information today. Grrreeat. Thinking about this for the last 10 years I always thought I would go. Now that the moment is here to make plans to go I don't really feel like it. I don't keep in touch with any of the kids I went to school with. I hear updates from my mom who talks to some of their moms and that is about it. I really would only be interested in seeing a couple of the girls. I could care less about the other 140 people. So it starts on Friday evening and is over with Sunday after brunch. What a pain. And it's over the weekend before 4th of July. Uggg. So a plane ticket to Denver (which is still going to leave me with a 4 hours drive) is $288. I could drive up there but god what a PITA. And I'm going to have to take vacation that I don't even have yet. Alright and admittedly I don't have a lot to show for 10 years of being an "adult".
Husband- nope
job-check
good paying job-nope (but still better then most of what those losers that stayed in NE are getting
looks-ok those are still good.check
kids-nope
house-nope
successful-in some ways....sure if you count weighing the same weight I did when I graduated, able to drink more than any girl my size should, got Pat Greens autograph 15 times, knowing all the bars in Dallas and where happy hour specials are, having a immaculately clean apartment always, and a bitchy cat. Though if I try to see the bright side of things...I have a bunch of really great girlfriends that I love to death and are more important to me then any dumb teenager girl I ran around with. I have a nice car and a roof over my head that I pay for by myself and don't have to depend on someone else for. I have fun. I still make people laugh. I'm still young at heart and act it.
I think I'm going to go buy Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion tonight. And all I'm going to eat our jelly beans and gummy bears in honor of it. I think I cut my foot earlier and my shoe is filling up with blood........

Missed my 10 year also. I was there of course - just got so drunk I don't remember any of it. But at least I heard that people said I hadn't changed at all. Wonder if they were referring to my looks...
