How the Heck Did This Happen?

I got an invitation for my 15-year high school reunion in the mail the other day.

I know I went to my 10-year college reunion last fall, so it follows that my 15-year high school reunion would be this year.

And it isn't even the 15-year part of it that's crazy.

I won't be able to go to this reunion; I've never made it back for a high school reunion. But I'd like to try and get back for the next big one. And that's where I blow my mind.

The next time I get a special invitation for my high school reunion it will be for the 20-year mark. 20 years! I won't have been back to my high school for 20 years (not counting my brothers' memorial service). I won't have seen these people for 20 years.

How the heck did I get so old?

My only consolation is that Steve's 20-year high school reunion was last year. No matter what happens, he will always be older than me.
