reunion

I apologize, dear readers, for taking so long to update this blog. Much has happened but I have not had the energy to document mi vida loca.

I went to my college reunion last weekend and discovered two things: 1) everyone who showed up was successful and 2) everybody was FAT! Aging is a bitch.

It was weird to see people who were alcoholics, drug addicts and sex freaks in college come back our reunion as corporate whores and surburban housewives. It was weirder still to see that some of them had actually become parents. It was tempting to say to someone's 10 year old kid, "did you know that your mommy used to screw anything with legs and a vagina back in college? But of course, that was before she met your daddy."

Equally disturbing were the people who hadn't changed at all. Qualities that were cute and quirky at 17 often lose their charm at 37.
