Going Back and Going Home

he: mile high club? member or no?
she: i live in denver, so yes
lol
he: plane wise
lol
she: no
he: me too
dang.
she: i haven't been on a really long flight in a really long time
he: truth or super truth?
she: oooh, super truth
he: ohhhhh
k
what's ur ultimate goal from your reunion weekend?
she: hmm
he: remember... super truth
she: thinking
he: lol
she: probably to have any dude who rejected my adoration to spend at least a week kicking theirselves really, really hard
he: lame... everyone wants that
she: ultimate goal for reunion weekend
this is even lamer
he: it doesn't have to be dirty
just true
but, dirty is better
lol
she: make peace with anyone i did something bad to in high school
he: how, my name is earl of you
she: yeah, there's really no on in my graduating class on my "wish I had done so I should do it while I'm here" list
he: who did you treat badly?
she: not sure, but some people i have been in touch with, i remember being really close to, and there has been a little standoffishness, you know?
he: eh, that's how girls are
she: but i know the whole growing apart thing had alot to do with my hibernating because all of the shit i went through, and just letting connections die
not just with girls
he: going to my 20th reunion changed my life in a really good way
i've been much happier since i went
she: what was your ultimate goal?
he: my ultimate goal was to show off my success to all the jerks that hated me in HS (total cliche' i know)
but they were all to pathetic to rub it in
she: lol
he: and, i rediscovered so many special people i lost touch with, that make me feel like i have real friends who care about me and think like me and have problems like me and who deal with life like me
and that makes me so very happy
how gay is that
she: that's what i'm hoping for
it's not remotely gay
i mean, look at me and you, thank you MySpace!
he: true
she: we weren't close in high school, we should have been, because yeah, we're birds of a feather and what not
and there are some people like that for me
alot of people like that, that knew me when i was 17 and floundering around
who kind of know the real me under everything else the last 20 years has thrown at me
he: In 20 years i'm glad that i still have ** and ***** ****** in my life. and have people that treat me like they're lucky to have me as a friend. i treasure that
she: i'm trying to think of who all falls in that category for me
he: plus the ** and ** who still think i'm funny
you'll be the hit of the reunion, trust me
she: you always were funny, you were one of the few people who knew who they were and seemed so comfortable in their own skin
kind of intimidated me, actually, i didn't think i was cool enough to be your friend
really, lol
he: lol
she: i didn't know who the fuck i was then
he: yeah. you're independent. 90% of the people we knew thought they had to be married preggo and live in ckvl for their whole life
she: i skipped the preggo part, lol
** has a lifetime friend pass from me, we met when i was 9 and she was 10
he: i cant imagine one person in that room saying anything that would get to you. and, 99% of the people there will be jealous of that
she: um, ok, lol
he: lol
she: ***** and i were close, and i love her
***** and I were close, and I can not wait to see her, we kept in touch pretty good until 2002, when my mom died and i fell off the face of the earth again
*** and I have unfinished business
i honestly have good memories of just about everyone, even people i didn't like, i can look back and be like "oh, silly me"
but not everyone, lol
yeah, i'm pretty much ready for anything, one stupid comment and i'll make someone look like an ass without batting an eyelash
and then i'll come home and BLOG, lol
he: dont. for real. Just go and be fabulous like you are and have fun and wait for the friends to flock to you.
i was apprehensive
but if i didnt go i'd probably be a much different person right now
she: i need it, i need closure, oddly enough
he: brb, tinkle
she: ok, i'll type
there is one friend who i was very close to, and she and i had a falling out over something really, really stupid
and i'm sure it was mostly my fault, but i was young and stupid
so i was thrilled to find her on facebook, and was honestly looking forward to the whole reminiscing and laughing thing
but she was kinda standoffish, so i guess that's not going to happen, lol
brb, must pee too
he: best toast ever, is also the lamest toast ever...
"here's to those who wish me well, and all the rest can go to hell"
very telling and true. good name for a blog
she: best toast ever? lol
and that will probably be my hs reunion blog title, thank you, thank you vedddy much
knowing it was a good experience for you makes me feel so much better about it
bueller
did i screw up google chat again?
he: lol
hows that?
she: yay, lol
he: it's not really the best toast, but the sentiment kinda describes my outlook
she: it's just
i didn't actually graduate, my senior year story is all sorts of fractured and fucked up
and i just know someone is going to be stupid enough to bring up the fact i didn't technically graduate
he: same here, remember my civics fiasco
she: and then i'm going to have to challenge them to trivial pursuit and kick their ass
I TESTED OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL YOU ASSHOLE
lol
what happened with civics?
he: we'll partner up and Dominate!
she: ok
lol
he: i got suspended for 3 days for sleeping(5th period, last semester, senior year)
she: lolol
he: and missed a test that brought my grade for the semester down to a 68.5
didn't graduate by 1 pt(required class)
she: oh wow
he: had to go to summer school
and, have never seen my diploma
she: thank you god, i am not alone
lol
we make pretty good money for peeps with no diploma, would you agree? lol
anyway, here's to no diploma * cheers *
DRINK
he: woo ho
hoo
doh'
she: i just really hated the school part of school
he: need vodka, empty
she: k
he: u and me both. i think that's why we 'get' each other and can say whatever we want. we were meant to help each other.
she: awww...i think you're right
school, like church, is something i don't understand getting up at 7am for
not sure how i lasted 7 years in the military
oh yeah, threat of jail
i think you and i are the people that usually don't candycoat life situations, we don't delude ourselves alot, we're pretty honest with ourselves and everyone else
and i don't think everyone is capable of that
he: nope, and those who are capable of it are much more likely to be happy in their own skin. I say that knowing i have many flaws
lol
she: lol
i have flaws, i'll point them out before anyone else can, i rock at that, lol
pseudo self-deprecation
he: lol, awesome self defense mechanism
she: eh, i know i'm a good person, and a good friend to those who are good friends to me, and everyone else?
eh, fuck 'em, lol
he: it's like i wrote that myself. :)
she: by your toast, and all, lol
i think the pre-reunion thing at spankies is going to be the most fun
i need to get a smaller point and shoot camera before my trip
he: yeah will. mucho jackassery that needs to be documented
she: oh, we will be so ready for jackassery, i cannot wait
he: i'll have a vodka and cran waiting for you at the terminal
she: that will be fabulous with the valium, lol
hey, we should go out on Thursday night in Nashville and send out word on Facebook to Nashville peeps to join us
he: yup, remind me to laugh at how pathetic **** is as every chance
she: lolol
he: hell ya
Decades
she: wow
ugh
i really don't have anyone i dislike alot
except ** at the moment, lol
he: 90's upstairs 80's downstairs
lol
she: Oh, you weren't making a time reference, my bad
OK, I am SO in, lol
he: 1 block down is a karaoke bar
she: uh oh
lol
i love me some karaoke
i am really, really, really bad
he: and there's a coyote ugly close
she: do i get to dance on the bar?
he: ill only insist
she: lol
he: i'll hold your panties while u do
she: was there any one person you were dreading to see at the reunion? supertruth
you assume i'll be wearing panties, HA HA!
jk, probably will, lol
he: :-) no, i was looking forward to shoving my success into the faces of those who hated me. i was humbled quickly and got along with everyone famously. i felt bad i was apprehensive
it was an incredible night
for real
she: i guess i'm just bracing myself for cattiness, but not looking for it, you know?
if it's there, i'll deal with it, if not, awesome
i know it's going to be great, i know it's something i absolutely have to do
i was ridiculously giddy when i bought my plane ticket, lol
he: talk to ** about it. i'm sure that would be a better reference than me
lol. i know that feeling
she: i have so many memories of so many people, from even pre-school and beyond, i probably have a silly story about everyone
he: they all have silly stories about me, but i wont hide from them. that's why i'm strong
she: i have been told stories about me that i don't remember at all
he: not like mma strong, but brainiacally strong
she: lmao
he: me too
lol
she: yeah, there's alot of things i can't deny, and won't
i'm not embarrassed or ashamed of anything, i don't think
he: ohhh, i heard of a cool website.(ADD kicking in).
6dollartshirts.com
she: it's cool, we've been on the same topic for like a whole hour, lol
oh god, i want to su suss sussudio one
for the american psycho reference alone
he: LOL!!!!!!!
