Confession

I'm having second thoughts about going to my 10-year high school reunion this Saturday. I've already paid for my ticket, so I'll go no matter what, but suddenly the prospect of being surrounded a bunch of people who couldn't have cared less about my existence when I was 17 (save for a small handful) and who will probably not remember me now is not that appealing.

Maybe I should just accept my inevitable role as a wallflower, and realize that it's unrealistic to expect people to notice me when I give them no real reason to do so.

I wouldn't attend my reunion. I went to a magnet school half-day so I wouldn't go crazy in my own high school, and I still wasn't close with anyone. It'd be fun to show up as a hot babe, like "Look me at now!" but I don't really care about any of my former classmates to show off.

Really, I'm just going because of its train-wreck appeal. And maybe to be a hot babe.... :)

It makes me feel better to imagine my college crush as a schlubby-looking dude in the future with thinning hair and a belly and not looking sexy or cool. It's petty, but it makes me see kids growing up into their "uncool" parents.
