It was kind of a fast paced weekend. I took Friday off for a mani/pedi, and to wait at home for the alarm system guy. I picked the spouse up at his office around 5:30, and we were off.
Saturday, we had bagels, Matt got a haircut and we chilled out at the parents' house til it was time to go to my reunion.
I was having some stress about seeing all these people and as it turned out, the people I was happiest to see are people I see from time to time anyway.
Folks from the neighborhood.
There were a ton of people there I sort of knew and it was nice to see them, and a few people I was excited to see - but lots of people I had wanted to see weren't there. Like the people from French class, the OMers, and the AP Euro crew - two of us showed and we spent a lot of the night talking.
It was...
Meh.
I'm glad I went, I'm glad I saw people I liked, and there was no drama - nobody called me 'fro head or porky, or made fun of me for...anything.
I survived it, and it was fine.
Meh. Not bad, not amazing.
And so we stayed for a bit, then hit up Waffle House, then came home and spent time with my parents.
