This evening was the first of two nights of reunion dinners with the friends from my college dorm. It was an informal dinner filled with much chat and quite a bit of picture viewing. I am all wrung out in a different way than my usual moaning and whining ~tired from shopping and blown away from so many memories. I haven’t the energy to form complete sentences so following are a few of my ill formed thoughts that I will later sort into better compiled bits….
1. Why in all the pictures from our early college years am I wrapped around or sitting upon various males? Looking back I wish I was the girl standing on her own two feet and looking straight at the camera as if to say, “What up? You wanna throw it down?”
2. It seems that so many of my memories involve massive hangovers, and yet I don’t remember drinking that much. Perhaps there is a correlation between the two….
3. My hair peaked in the late 80′s and early 90′s. So sad but true. For those of us with thick, curly hair that was the one time we could truly be free.
4. I am so glad that today I bought a pair of Power Panties for this gathering. I felt a million times better knowing I could peacefully sit down and not fear an invasion of the muffin top over my new jeans.
5. The humid Midwestern climate is far kinder to the under eye skin area than the Colorado mountains. Let’s just leave it at that because I am still on a high from #4.
There is more but a juicy vampire book awaits me this evening and that is about as good as it gets for a single gal.
