$50 bucks and I have to pay for my drinks?

So I finally had the dreaded high school reunion. It was not as bad as I had feared. Before going in, I was gripped with the same old anxiety that had been so much a part of my highschool experience. I don't know why, I am not the same geeky girl I was then. I have since become a stylish dork. So, after a little mood adjuster (provided by my best friend from highschool) I was ready.

First I looked good. I really did, and it was awesome. Second some of the really skinny girls are not skinny anymore! That is always a great thing to see. Third I felt better about my recent divorce when I found out that one girl I was friends with back in the day, had been divorced twice and married 3 times. She was trashed and sitting holding court by the pool tables. I thought that was pretty cool when she was like "Yah, he's number 3" pointing to her new husband (He just laughed.) Then I talked to the guy that sat behind me (we both have D last names) for four years and he introduced me to his boyfriend. I guess the D was for Denial. No one was surprised by either of us.

However I must say that paying $50 for a ticket, they could have given us free drinks. At least a few. I was really a little pissed about that. The buffet was buffet food and didn't look that appealing so I didn't eat. Also the slide show was mostly the same A group people plus a bunch of yearbook pictures. I was in one of the last ones. I guess I can't bitch though...They asked for pictures and my slack ass did not send any.

Overall I was glad I went because, well, I looked good. Having been a major geek throughout highschool, it was nice to look around and see that I am doing pretty damn well. Plus I have a hot girlfriend. So really who won in the end.
