Yesterday I had the BIG reunion, which actually turned out to be a quite small or even tiny reunion, only half of the people who had RSVP-ed showed up. I don’t know why the rest didn’t bother to show their face, could be that they thought it was too hot (28º C) or maybe they just didn’t care. Anyway I enjoyed a nice and entertaining Sunday in an air-conditioned room with a bunch of people I recognised, I could even put names and faces together, but of which I couldn’t remember any specifics. I always thought that the reunion would trigger my memory but it didn’t. So, there I was in a room full of people, listening to stories I had never heard before or could not remember. I can tell you this; it was a very strange sensation. It felt like those people had lived in a parallel universe or something……weird!! But I wasn’t the only one; more people experienced the same thing. At some point we even wondered if we were at the right reunion ;).All in all…. an enjoyable day!
Reasons to be cheerful:
1. I am not like them! Hooray :)
2. I just started up msn (for the first time in years) and had a nice chat with one of my old (msn) pals.
3. I am soooo glad I live in the now.

Reunions are strange. I think the comment you made that I liked the most was that people remembered things so differently, as if you'd lived in a parallel universe. Perspective, and perception, is everything.
