20 Years Later

I feel old on a daily basis-then I wake up...then I feel old again...just sayin...

I mentioned the other day that my 20 yr HS reunion was this weekend, I missed my 10 yr because Reese had broke his leg the day before and only wanted his mama to snuggle him and bring him ice cream, my how things have changed, now he only wants me for my cash...

My sister the faloozie and best friend from HS had hounded politely asked/suggested I go and I kinda ho-hummed around it, not really sure what I wanted to do-they don't call me Decisionally Challenged for nothing...So when I saw on facebook that a friend from HS was having a lil mini GTG at a bar called Roosters right by where the reunion was being held, I decided to go...very non-commital of me I know...

Then at about noon yesterday NOT Sawyer thought I waited till the last minute to go because I was embarressed of him and didn't want him to go with me-I swear that man is going through a midlife crisis-maybe I should stop calling him 'Not Sawyer' to his face?

Then my friend from HS who was putting together the GTG @ Roosters didn't have a sitter-so I did what any good mom would do-I pimped out Abby...

We ended up crashing the reunion party, cause that's how we roll and I have to say I am so glad I went-The reunion party was held at The Clubhouse Bar and Grille it was a swanky place attached to the Spirit Bank center

Here are a few pix from our night of debauchery evening

That's Amy(who planned the GTG) and her hubby Kevin, Yvette and Jim and me-all those beer bottles are not mine-I was responsible plus I value my liver, I really really like my liver...this was at Roosters bar before we crashed the party




Theres the faloozie and my best friend from HS Kristen-you may be asking yourself, 'self, why is Georgie's sister there, I know they aren't twins?' was Georgie held back?


Well this is why my sister was there...that's my BIL Chad who graduated in '89 and married my sis, Chads cousin Stacey and her hubby are also pictured


My partner in crime through our HS days-


Here is Kristen and her hubby Derrek-Beautiful couple!  Thanks Derrek for letting me monopolize Kristen all night

Then I walked upstairs and saw this...
and this...

and I wanted to run back outside-those are peeps up there not sardines but I felt like a sardine and so I turned to Kristen and said "IIIII ccccan'ttttt handle th-th-thisssss...iiiiittttttt's toooooo cccrrrowwwwdedddd

and I ran downstairs to get some fresh air and ran into this.....

more People-I mean come on what did I expect-we had a graduating class of over 800

In the pic below is Mike, I love Mike and if I wasn't married I think I would run off to Jersey with him-


Tonight is the BIG night, with dinner and drinks and of course I haven't decided if I'm going or not-it really is the fact that I am decisionally challenged folks. I wonder if they make a medication for my disorder?

My confession for today: I didn't get home till almost 3am and when I woke up this morning afternoon I was instantly reminded...I'm not in High School anymore, my Partying like a rock star days are so behind me...

  2. I don't know if I will go to my 20! I missed my 10. High school wasn't a great time for me.

  3. Sounds like you had a great time! My 20 is in 2011. I'm almost afraid to go. :)

  4. LOL - Sounds like you had a great time. I missed my 10 year because I was pregnant but can't wait for 20. I will definitely be making a road trip out to the ATL for that one. All this to say - you should definitely go tonight! How many times do you get to see all of your old friends partying like rock stars?...Wait, maybe you shouldn't answer that : )

  5. I went to my 20th, ahem, three years ago. It was a blast, surprisingly so. I think everyone should go to their reunions - it's a reminder that 20 years out, the cliques and girl fights and who's mad at who is really just not important anymore!

  6. Great pics! I hated my 20th! It was the people I see every day! Very Boring! I suppose it needed some liquor! LOL

  10. Looks like you had a good time. I don't like crowds either. I only to my 15th year reunion. I was going to my 35th but found that my best friend in high school died a few years before. My other best friend is now a jerk. What can I say?

  11. I've been going out with my roommates the past few weeks and I totally know what you mean about partying like a rock star......it was much easier to bounce back in those days from a night of drinking. Looks like you had a good time though!

  12. I'm glad you had fun!

    I missed my 20-year reunion. I went to the 10-year reunion. It was OK. The people were pretty much the same, just 10 years older.

  20. I've had regrets about never making it to one of mine. But I keep up with friends from high school, though we haven't seen each other in 40+ years. Glad you got to go and enjoy that.

  21. I love reunions!
    I was my sister's "date" for hers (because her husband didn't want to go) and we stumbled in to our hotel room a little after 4a. Unfortunately I had to leave the hotel by 7a to catch my flight home! oops.

  22. Um. Mike. Jersey. Um. If you're not going to take him, can I have him? :-D Yummy eyes.

    ReplyDelete
  23. You're too funny. I am glad you had fun and it sounds like you did!! I would recoment without hubby, if he's like mine he would be bored to tears because he knows no one.

  24. My 30 year reunion took place recently...I didn't know a thing about it...clearly I'm VERY committed!

    ReplyDelete

  26. What great pictures! I have to say though that you not old because I graduated in 78...yeah, you read that right. 1 9 7 8. Ugh. I didn't go to my reunions:) You look like you had a great time!

    ReplyDelete
  27. You wild woman you! We do hit that age of not
    being a "party animal" anymore don't we?
    It sounds like you did have fun though!

    PS Thanks for stopping by my blog and the
    compliment. Come back soon

  28. Dang, you look HAWT!

    I'm debating going to my 10 year this fall.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Are you telling me that being a rockstar is no longer a state of mind?! What? Is that why the hang-overs are getting tougher and tougher?

    You did look amazing, though, Georgie! :)

  30. Looks like lots and lots of fun. How was The Clubhouse for the party. We've been thinking of it for our 35th...egads...yup 35th. BA'74! - and yes Jason is The Hubby's nephew, small world.

  31. That's a HUGE turn out. Mine is coming up here in a few years. I didn't go to my 10 year, but I heard it was poorly attended.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Holy smokes, Georgie! What a fete! Makes me want to reconsider swearing off reunions! :)

    Glad it was such fun. (Maybe I'll just crash you reunions... ;) )

  33. glad you went and had a good time!!!!!!
    i love getting together with old friends!!!!!

  34. Georgie, Georgie, Georgie, we might be born from the same pod. I'm quite undecided about my 20 yr reunion as well. There's a huge w/e shindig coming in Sept. but I can't get the excitement I should have in order to go. Glad to hear you had a good time. Helps when you have close friends to go with. My husband and best friend were from the same graduating class but neither of them are interested in going....

  35. I was never part of the "in" crowd or even the "out" crowd due to the fact that I was a loner, and only wanted OUT OF THERE. As they say: "you can never go home again" and I'm STILL a loner!

    ReplyDelete
  36. Yeah ...I was closer with my grammar school friends than any high school buddies, but it might be inteerresting.

  37. I wish Jason would have gone! It would have been fun!
