Has it been 20 years? I just got a letter in the mail that my 20 year high school reunion is this summer. Now that really makes me feel old. I can't believe how much time has passed.
I took a stroll down memory lane...I remember sitting in the auditorium the day cards were passed around for us to list information so we could be "found" for reunions. I had no intention of every returning, so I promptly threw it away. Looks like I was "found" anyway.
I did not have close friends at the high school, most of the people I hung out with were either dropped-out or older. And you have to realize, there were 1200+ people in my graduating class, so it was easy to be a loner in such a big crowd. I do think it is fun to look for familiar names on classmates.com and see what folks are up to these days. I kind of want to go, but I know I wouldn't know anyone there.
Nowadays when I go "home" to Edmond, it's so wierd. It's not really my home anymore, I don't know anyone there but my immediate family and lots has changed. Even so, it's still comforting a strange way to go back to the place I grew up and loved so much as a kid. It's a part of me.
My favorite thing to do is get an ice cream from Braums. We don't have those in Tennessee.
