I reunioned, and survived.

I had my 10 year high school reunion on Saturday.

Let me say that again.

My TEN YEAR high school reunion.

Yeah.

It started out being pretty damn lame, and ended up being only slightly lame, which I consider a win.  It was very awesome to see some of these people again (one fellow band nerd flew out from Nebraska, and it was SO GREAT to see her there), but there were a ton of people that a) I didn't recognize, like, at all, and b) some people that reminded me why I'm so glad I'm over the high school thing.

Everyone complimented my hair, and said I looked good for having 3 kids.  People remembered my name, and came over to talk to me.  Carrie (my best friend) was my date, and I don't think I could've gone to this thing without her, because I knew that with her there, no matter what, at least ONE person there wanted to talk to me (and having a couple of stiff drinks at the bar really helped).

So, in conclusion, I think I got a lot of closure from it.  I have gotten the opportunity to prove to myself that I'm a kickass person, I reconnected with people, and looked good doing it.  Would I do it again?  Hell no.  Am I glad I went?  Yes, yes I am.  It certainly could've been worse.

Mine was totally lame and I was only a few most pp from having Lily so I was FAT and emotional and it sucked totally.

So glad yours was better!
