Shit's all sorts of different now.

I had a blast at my 10 year. It was nice to hang out with theother geeks/nerds/outcasts and talk about our spouses/children/careers and laugh at the "poplaur" ones, who all showed up at the same time and got plastered and caused a bunch of damage.

Can't wait for my 15 next summer.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I know two of my classmates' current futures: political reporter for the Telegraph, and tantric sex instructor.

How can I not want to see what everyone else has done?

I can barely remember the names of anyone I went to high school with. Then again, that was 1979. Holy hell, nearly thirty years.

Get offa my lawn.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

My 20th was last month. Didn't go.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Can't go to reunions. School too small and too close to where I live.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

My 20th is a week before my due date. I was totally planning to go when I got the notice, but that's looking slightly less likely now.

Actually, now that I think of it, even though I wouldn't go.... my 15th should have been this summer. Hmmm....

My 20th is this year, too. I threw the notice in the recycling, having determined long ago that I've kept in touch with the people I care about and the rest of them can rot in hell.

I went to high school with a bunch of apathetic people (of which I am one, in this case). We had a 20th but no 25th and no 30th. No one wanted to be the sucker to organize it, because it's like herding cats on catnip. Our 20th was interesting though and sorta fun, most of the popular people actually ended up being nice and not snooty like they were in school. At the time our class president (voted most likely to succeed) was a driver for UPS. Alnd the person voted shyest ended up at the CIA as an assistant director.

I didn't particularly dislike anyone in my year at school. And I had a good time there.

Now I want to google everyone, but it seems that people in the UK have less of a web footprint than the people I met in North America once I'd left.
