I think I may have posted this before

My 30th HS reunion is coming up in three weeks. I will not be attending as it is the largest gathering of aging yuppies to be seen in the central Iowa area since, well, any other 30th HS reunion of the last few years. I did send in info for the book they are giving out. My email went thusly.

I will not be attending, but I thought I would send this on so people can say "I don't remember him".

The biographical information I sent in was ...

I’ve done professional theatre on two continents, standup comedy, fronted a punk band, had actual jobs in a warehouse, coffeehouse, bank, law firm, advertising agency and others who prefer I don’t mention them …
Oh, and I write viciously satirical songs about the sort of people I graduated with but of course that doesn’t pay the bills so instead I beat up computers for a living

You should pay someone to be you and attend. I'm sad because I never get invited to those things. I wouldn't go, but it's the thought that counts.

I'm still trying to work out how they tracked me down. I have never gone to a reunion.

For the 10th, or maybe the 15th, I was going to go with my now wife and another babe of a friend. They were going to dress to the 9s, not speak to anyone and get everything for me. I was going to be scruffy and non-communicative the entire evening. Just odd abstractions.

After I looked at the list of the folks who said they were going to go, that I couldn't care less. I knew practically none of them. My graduating class was 714. Anyone I wanted to talk to, I could still pick up the phone and call.

30th? Dang...you're old!

[ericcoleman]

So how would you feel about old age creeping up on you ???

At least you're sending something...the reunion stuff I received didn't seem to have a page for memory book entries, not that I plan on sending anything or going. The only person I'm interested in seeing from my high school is dead.
