11/26/11: The days of venturing the high school halls of 12 Freeland Street as a student are long gone, but (a few of) the relationships that began there are not. For one reason or another, I talk to very few (I could probably count on one hand the number) classmates from high school, but periodically keep in touch with old teachers. So, it wasn’t odd for me to get a message from Carly, my former principal’s daughter a few weeks ago inviting me to a surprise 25th anniversary party for her parents. It had been years since I’d seen Mrs. Eressy (Caca!) and Mike, but I didn’t have to think twice about this invite. Despite getting a little lost on the roads that I used to travel all the time, I made it in time for the “surprise”. Words can’t describe the reaction on Mike’s face when he came home solo to “a flooded house” and decided to leave his wife at his neighbors. Great party, little Eressys! And Happy 25th Caca and Ace!
