This weekend I received a last minute invitation to a friend's son's college graduation party at a local pub. I was showered, so I was at least clean, but didn't have time to curl my hair, so just pulled it back in a braid/ponytail. Nor did I fuss with my clothes, since this pub is very casual, and I honestly didn't expect to see more than 1 or 2 people that I knew. And of course the worst offense... minimal makeup. But I figured, what the heck, I'll only be there long enough for a brief "congrats" to the grad and family, an ice tea, and then back home.
OK... so now you see where I'm headed with this...
I saw friends there that I hadn't seen in years! The stars were aligned such that one of my best friends from grade/high school was in town from Texas, and my college roommate (who happened to be the grad's aunt - which I had completely forgotten) was in town as well. The three of us were the best of friends in high school and college years.
I also saw a couple of mom's that I hung around with when my son was in school. Along with a bunch of other people.
And I looked like I just came in off the farm... straight from the fields... parked my tractor outside the bar. Well I don't actually have a farm or a tractor...
Well we had a good time and took pictures anyway. So here's to surprise reunions with good friends!
Wow, I too, have trouble with Pam's Law #1. Been caught off guard just like that. I believe that's Deenie (Without asking Alan). Oh my, I haven't seen her since... before kids maybe. And Deb Thomas. She stopped by about a year ago, she looks great! I don't know 3rd pic, next to Connie, is that Elmira? Anyway, glad you didn't let anything stop ya from having a nice visit! Good Times.....
