HS reunion re-cap
For those who care, my reunion went pretty well last night. 
I had a good time--a lot more fun than I thought I would. It started out a little awkward, so my bff and I (and our H's) just hung out together at our table but as more people got there (and as the liquor started flowing 
) everyone started to loosen up and the mingling began.

It was funny to me that some of the girls wore short, tight, bright colored dresses...and they were the girls that are single--overcompensating much? (this was a very casual event at a casual location and casual dress was specified on the invite) DH said they looked liked 14 yr old girls playing dress up haha So...some people hadn't changed a bit and others were the same but mature (as one would hope since it's been 10 yrs).
It was really great catching up with my old friends. I went to college with several of them but it had still been ~5 yrs since I'd seen them so I had a lot of fun with them. I don't think DH had that great of a time, but who can blame him since he only knew a couple of people, but he was provided food and beer so he survived 
If you have a reunion coming up and you're thinking about going, just go. You may have more fun than you're expecting and if it's lame you can just go home early 
Re: HS reunion re-cap
Glad you had a great time. Glad you got enough stuff for the care packages.
I'm looking forward to mine (it won't be for a couple of years though) but since all of the people from my class are on my FB I'm begining to think maybe we won't need a reunion.
My reunion is coming up next month. I may not go, but if I do, I will definitely dress up a bit. I don't do the short, tight dress thing, but you can bet your ass I'll do a little more than "casual". I'm the same size I was in HS, have bigger boobs, and have discovered the benefits of eyebrow waxing. I plan to show off a bit, NOT overcompensate for being single.
But then again, I probably won't even go given how little I had in common with most of these people in HS. I'm sure it's even less now.
That wording bothered me, too. Why would anyone need to overcompensate for being single, like it's some kind of deficiency? Marriage isn't the grand prize for everyone.
Yeah, the wording set me off. Yeah, it's kinda ridic to wear a fancy dress to a casual party, but why would one assume they're overcompensating for anything? Maybe they're just sluts.
Honestly, now I'm all second-guessing what I said about showing off. Like it sounds like I think physically looking better than in HS is some reason to flaunt it. Anyway. I don't know.
