Did some of those things, Mrs. D. Especially the prank part, but of a much later vintage. And in that instance, I do respect the prankster's authori-tah.

facebook has shown me that the vast majority of the gals who were out of my league way back then still are, but at the other end of the spectrum. no thanks, i already bought a 'house' ...lol

besides what i've seen on others' feeds, i have zero interest in high school or anything/body related to it. never been to a reunion, never so much as responded to an invite with a 'no'. i know most would disagree with me, but ah well...guess i'm just that way.

I saw a post on FB the other day that my old HS class in Indianapolis was having - gad! - a 35 year reunion. I went to the website and browsed the names (there were 740 in the graduating class) and photos and some of the updated bios. It was kind of interesting but it didn't launch a strong desire in my heart to return. Moving away in the middle of my junior year was perhaps the most socially traumatic thing that had happened to me up until that point, but now, eh.
