There seem to be a lot of times when I find out that someone is my age and I think "Oh my God, they look so old!" Is it the same for all of us? Have you all seen me lately and said the same thing to yourself?

I still think of Mr. McGary whenever I see a rerun of Monte Python. Quite often, I thought his reenactments were better than the original.

Do you remember Mr. Durrigan? I took Advanced Math Analysis and we had to do some programming that resulted in a picture created out of x's on a page. Mr. Durrigan put one on the wall that was a silhouette of a shapley, naked woman on a stool. Under it he printed my name. It was mortifying. It reminds me how much times have changed.

I have been so incredibly lucky to have kept Kathy Omodt as one of my closest friends. While we don't see each other all that often, we have that kind of relationship where you can pick up where you left off six months or a year ago. She was right there when I needed her last year and it still chokes me up. I hope others have kept some friends from school like this.
