40th High School Reunion

My 40th high school reunion is this summer.  I have been heavily involved in getting it organized.  I find it strange that more of my classmates are not excited about the prospect.  For many of us, this could be the last chance we get to see each other. 

Some of us apparently never really like high school (I didn't), and never liked our classmates (with few exceptions, I thought that was me, too).  I learned differently at the 25th and 38th reunions.  There were people at each that I never knew I liked, and others that I definitely never thought liked me.   Turns out I was wrong.  That was definitely cool. 

Let there be no mistake.  I left that town thirty some years ago because I didn't really "fit."  The pond was just too small, and somehow I felt like a different sort of fish than what makes that pond a home.  I am perfectly happy 1400 miles away.  I will be content never to return after this one last party.  But this will be a nice closure.  I hope I don't get all misty.

On second thought, who cares?
