High School Reunion

Dare I say how many years I've been out of high school???  Nope....I'll keep you guessing.

Well, initially a few months ago, I was excited about it.  I thought, this time it's going to be at a bar, more laid back and fun so why not.  Right?

Then Virginia's funeral was yesterday and it was a really tough day.  After Ken and Cody left I got kind of in a funk and was super sad.

Around lunch, I got an email from my buddy Dave who encouraged me to go.  I guess in a way, I thought it would be a good thing to get out of the house and be around a positive environment.  So of course with terrible traffic on I-95 south bound it took me forever to get from point A to point B.  But I did get there eventually.  I met Dave at his parent's house, said hi to them as we headed out.

The reunion was fun and it was nice chatting with people that I haven't spoke to in ** years.  Almost said it.  :)  I'm glad I went because it did lift my spirits and the best part is I got to spend some time with David.  He's been my buddy since 9th grade and is always super supportive.

Of course driving home I got stuck in monster traffic.  For some reason all lanes were shut down to one lane.  Am I surprised?  NO.  Am I okay with it?  NO.  Do I have a choice in the matter?  NO.  Was I stuck in traffic for 1 1/2 hours to go about 10 miles if that?  YES!  Am I super mad?  NO.  Am I super tired?  YES.  Am I glad that my sister lives between my house and the reunion?  YES!  I pulled over and called it a night.
