I'd actually love to go to my reunion, if there was one. There were less than a hundred people in my graduating class, I think I knew all of them, and I've kept in touch with hardly any. It's be swell to find out what they were all up to now.

But AFAIK there wasn't a 5th or 10th or 15th reunion, so I doubt there will be a 20th

I didn't go to my 10th reunion, which was in 2002. I didn't go even though the guy organizing it contact me by email (there were only 94 graduates). At the time I was still struggling with a lot of stuff and I just didn't know how to spin the truth to put things in a more positive light.

I live 35 miles from where I went to high school. If I wanted to see those people I'd already be doing so.

Well, that's a bit of an overstatement -- there are a few folks I'm curious about.

I keep in touch with one friend from high school. I have sent donations to the h.s. alumni association. I have never yet received an invitation to a reunion, nor yet seen any evidence that they actually hold such. I stopped getting the highly sporadic alumni newsletters about 5 moves ago.

Also? I think I have a job. That wasn't so much an interview as being talked at for a couple hours by the manager, and all the clients. As one client asked me to come with her to her Special Olympics track and field practice tonight, and I fixed up another's (non-existent) papercut by running her hand under cool water, and the manager told me to call the main office in the morning to find out where they could get me some hours between now and when the guy I'm replacing goes back to the Peace Corps, I'm feeling pretty good about it. Still I think I'll wait till morning to release the ~ma back into the wild.

I got roofied at my 10th. I was there with two of my best friends who realized what was happening and took care of me. I think I will skip the 20th...

This conversation made me curious, so I checked my HS website, and apparently my ten-year reunion is this weekend. I never got an invitation, and in order to see any details about it online, you need to be registered with an alumnae ID, which I never got. Oh well.

And I was reading on catch-up even thus not getting to play Spin the Drunk meara.

OK, now I'm imagining a fun fun game to play at the drag show...120 drag kings, me in the middle, spinning around...;)

My university has a freaky ability to track down alumni wherever they move. If my school's Living Endowment people had been sic'ced on Osama Bin Laden

Yeah, what's up with that? My high school can't find me, even though my parents live at the exact same address and phone number they always have (and my brother only graduated high school four years ago). But my university has tracked me (phone and mail!) through like, fifteen addresses!

I went to my ten year. None of the 15 or so people that I wanted to know about (out of a class of 500) was there, but I DID find out about Jared the Subway guy. And that made it...well, not all worthwhile, but at least an amusing story!

so I checked my HS website, and apparently my ten-year reunion is this weekend.

Huh. I wonder if R is going. She didn't mention it when we were talking the other night.

Moving is difficult. So tired.
