1989

My 20 year class reunion was last night. I himmed and hawed about going and finally relented. Tommy did not want to go. He had the perfect out with Pudgie's massive ear infection and Binky still working on her vertigo subsiding. I did not want to go without him. He finally gave in and we met Susan and Melissa for an evening of the "unknown." I am not sure what I expected from my reunion but it really did not live up to any expectations. I am just glad I got to hold hands with the love of my life and hang with Susan and Melissa laughing until someones panties came off.

Last night I realized:

*20 years flew by in the blink of my eye

*I was able to sit with two "old" friends and laugh like time has stood still.

*They are both seriously, two of the most beautiful women, inside and out, that I have ever met and still have the privilege of knowing!

*Women took their husbands, men conveniently "forgot" their wives, jackasses I tell you....

*The "HOT" guys from high school ~ WHAT THE HELL KIND OF TASTE DID I HAVE BACK THEN?

*The "PRETTY" girls ~ pretty much......all have "slow" metabolisms now! (Is that kinder Tommy?)

*Some people never change... thankfully, some finally did

*I paid too much to sit and reminisce

*With the exception of Susan and Melissa, I can go another 20 without seeing these people again

*I married a lot later than 95% of my classmates

*I waited even longer than most to have kids... some have 20 year olds and one has a set of 21 year old twins!

*I am one of the very few that have been married only one time.... and then stayed married. One woman had 5 hubby's under her belt!!

*My class consists mainly of: Cops, firefighters, or criminals... sad, I know!

*There are a lot of people that really never grow up

*Once again, tonight showed me how lucky I am for the family I have and the life I live
