Class of '88 in the House!

Two tank tops (1 with sequins), two wraps, a very chic jacket = $150 on sale
Choosing instead an old glam rock blazer and tried and true jeans = $0
Cash for babysitter = $70
Minutes off life spent with flatiron = 35
Swear words muttered while searching for missing high heel shoe = 8
Miscellaneous junk removed to find shoe in daughter's closet = 12
Two delicious lite beers in back seat of an SUV on the way to the big city = $3
Gas wasted while making way through throngs of Red Sox fans = 1/8 gallon
Text messages sent to husband to make sure he got there in time = 6

Walking into 20th HS reunion to find only FOUR other people =

(say it with me now)

PRICELESS!

(That being said, they were four very well-adjusted, interesting people and I was happy to see them.)

Nice.

Four people all night? You probably could have shown up in cut off shorts & flip flops.

Wow, four people is kind of a let-down. Either you went to a very small high school, or most of your classmates turned out to be losers. The losers never attend reunions, but aren't those the people you're really interested to see how they turned out? Like, whatever happened to that freaky guy who used to slowly drive a nail through the sole of his boot in Writing Lab? Bet HE won't show up at my 10-year reunion this year. He's probably a millionaire stock broker by now. Or perhaps in prison. Hard to say.
