Mom's 40 year High School Reunion



Last Saturday I went to the Union High 40th reunion. First we went to Tosh's band competition so we got to the reunion late. It was fun to see my old "Cronies" and to remember our crazy high school lives. The 2 girls on my right and left and I went to the Sweetheart swirl as freshmen together. We all asked guys we didn't know and we were all sorry by the end of the night. I ran into my biggest junior high crush, a fantastic jazz pianist who plays at Noto's every Friday night. He invited us to come hear him play. It was really funny when someone looked at their watch and said "my, it's after midnight". Someone else said "I'm always in bed by now" and someone else quipped "yeah, it's just about time for the first pee". Of course everyone laughed at this point because we are all stumbling to the bathroom one or two times a night at our age. I told this story at work and everyone over 50 broke into laughter and the rest just looked confused. They'll find out. Anyway, thanks to Annette for helping me to figure out how to post. Comments?

Looks like fun! I can't wait to finally make it to one of my reunions. Yeah, the peeing thing is not so funny to us young people who aren't looking forward to that!
