Back to the high school friends
I mentioned earlier about a friend from High School coming over with her husband for dinner but I didn't say how it went and I know you (whoever "you" is) are dying to find out how it went. Well it went really really great. I was kind of nervous in a way. Its been 32 years since I saw this girl and honestly we weren't super close in school but she was someone who was down to earth and I could hang out with her without feeling self conscious. I had really bad skin growing up and consequently I was so self conscious about it especially around the girls. My friend didn't give 2 shits about it. So she was cool to be around and she was really cute. We (all the boys) had the hots for her but that was just an added bonus - ok back to the present. We both have 3 times as much life experience now than we did when we were in school but it was just like being back in HS. Her husband really seemed to like my kids and I admire him for hanging in there with them. It looked as though he and my youngest could have gone off on their own and not noticed we weren't around. We did the usual reminiscing. I found out about some that happened to her that wasn't so great but that's life I suppose. In an earlier post I mentioned Perspective. Well I got some that day. Anyway I feel really fortunate for getting to see her and meet him. I feel closer to her now than I ever did in school. Still the same unpretentious, down to earth person. Pretty cool I think
