Sometimes I feel like the man time forgot. I have reached a point of sentimentality in my life. I have been going through old yearbooks and pix. I have a reunion coming up for my old high school chums. We went to school before there was electricity and fire...yes we had class in a cave. I will see my fellow "cavemen" soon.
It is funny how the mind wonders to decades gone by about the most inane things we did as kids. We actually petitioned the high school to have a smoking room for students, can you imagine anybody doing that today. We almost got it too...lol! Those were the days of penney loafers and sock hops. Of course this was mixed in with the new of the time. Flaired pants, lava lamps, black lights, and inflatable furniture were the new trends of the time.Later we were into full blown disco and insanity.
I had a few old classmates contact me lately too...right out of the blue. It looks like I am not alone in my mood. It seems all the wild people got religion...I always had it...but I am more tolerant. I sort of wished some of the gals were single...but they seem to be on marriage 3 or 4. I guess timing is everything...LOL!
Anyway it will be great to see these folks. We will sit and bitch about gas prices I am sure. Air travel is going to be a problem for some. I am close to the location of the reunion so I don't have an excuse not to go. One thing I promise not to do is dance...nobody wants to see that these days...lol!
