I remember...

Today is "We Love Memories Day."  This is strangely appropriated for me because I have been immersed in memories off and on for the last several weeks, getting ready for our high school reunion (it has been 60 years, but whose counting).  We are meeting in person.  An older friend told me recently that they held their 70th reunion last year by Zoom.  The only trouble was that several of the people didn't know how to add their names to their pictures and classmates had a lot of trouble recognizing each other.  I really shouldn't laugh.  Considering our ages, I'll be lucky to recognize half of my classmates next week.  Lucky for us, we have met every five years, so the age shock shouldn't be quite so hard to take.  Also, we will be wearing nametags, with our first names printed large.  And talking about large print, I delivered the new reunion directory to be copied today, and I typed it with a larger than usual font (16) but I don't expect any complaints.  I had them copy it with a bright pink cover.  Why pink you may ask?  Our school colors were blue and white after all, but when we voted on our class colors we chose silver and pink.  I can only assume that all the boys were absent that day, or maybe they were dealing with the goat on the school roof.  But that's a story for another time.
