Junior High--High School 23 Year "Reunion"









Facebook brought a whole bunch of us back together after 23 years--pretty neat! A few of us gals (and one guy:), some of whom go all the way back to elementary school, decided to meet for a get-together--it was a wonderful night, full of smiles, joy and laughter! We decided to have a $5 gift exchange, where we drew numbers for the gifts. I wound up with the funniest gift, a fork, with one tine that goes up in the middle---it's called an hors d'oeuveres fork with an attitude--it's hilarious! Anyway, we all keep in very regular touch on Facebook, and we already have big plans underway to make our 25 year reunion in two years a BIG EVENT! (we all admitted we were pretty disappointed with the Saturday night parts of the reunion for both the 10 and the 20---25 will be different:)

Funny Moments: 1. the first person I saw when I walked in was my former manger P.T. from S/O!! We talked at length, and it was wonderful to see her! Later I also bumped into another former S/O coworker/ music friend/ f.b. friend:)

2. A guy at another table walked up to our rather large group and asked me what we were doing there--were we some sort of teacher or hair convention:) Someone said, we're just a bunch getting together from the Class of '87; and as she explained this, the bartender/waitress walked by and said, "oh, that's the year I was born!" ughhhhhhh:)

3. Please note, there was not one STRAND of big hair, no leg warmers, no banana clips, and no shoulder pads to be seen that night:) But there were a few (not enough for me) 80's tunes!
