pre - high school reunion...

what a nite i had last nite...met up with 8 friends from my high school days...we were to discuss reunion next year...but...well...we never got to that...

we met up at a local brewery close to our old high school...and literally sat and told stories for over four hours...we covered prank stories...wardrobe stories...crush stories...you name it...we talked about it...

the crazy thing is how many of them have kids in high school now...that are friends with my nieces...what a crazy small world we live in...

i have not laughed so hard in so long...many people that i talk to about facebook...when i tell them of the many friends i have re-connected with from high school...usually say..."there is no one that i feel the need to talk to from high school"...i have to tell you...that is not me...

i have so many incredible memories from high school...and the many friends i had...some from last nite...i have not seen for 29 years...but it was as if no time had passed...the connection was there...immediately...

we are obviously going to have to meet again...to discuss reunion plans...but better than that...we have all decided to make a point of keeping the "reunion" feel going...and meeting up once every two months...just to keep in touch...i am really looking forward to that...

my friend neil...suggested this incredible idea...and the idea came from his dad...who is in his 80's...and still meets up with five of his friends every month...you know me...i'm all about connections...here's to still hanging out with my high school friends...when i'm in my eighties!
