Hard to believe that I graduated from college 30 years ago last month.  The time has zoomed by!

I’ll never forget graduation day.  My parents came (I think they felt obligated.  HA!).  I told them to just leave the motor on the car idling because as soon as I had that diploma, we were leaving.  We were going to beat the rush to get off campus.

I went to a small Bible college in NE Pennsylvania.  It was a beautiful campus.  Everybody was required to have a Bible major and then you could select your second major.  So, in four years, I graduated with a double major:  Bachelor of Science in Bible and Elementary Education.  Yup.  I was an official school teacher.

So, about 6 months ago, one of my friends from back in the day started up a FB page for the people who attended this college while we were there.  He is trying to get a reunion going for this October during Homecoming/Parents Day Weekend.  Today was the official day to RSVP.  I looked at the dates.

See, MFH (My Favorite Husband) and I made a trip there about 4 years ago(?) to see the campus.  MFH had never been there before.  I had never been willing to go back.  He finally talked me into it.  We had a lovely, albeit quick, visit.

I really was not all that interested in participating in this reunion weekend.  First off, it is a long ways from where we live and second, there are a few people I would rather not see again.

Back to the dates.  Darn!  I have a conflict for that particular weekend!  I really feel bad about it, too (please note sarcasm), but that weekend I will be running the Chicago Marathon!

YAY for the Chicago Marathon!!!  YAY!  YAY!!  YAY!!!

I am here to tell you, I am looking forward to this Marathon now for more reasons than just because it is THE Chicago Marathon.  It is getting me out of my 30 year college reunion!  Bells and Whistles!

But, then again, 30 years.  Am I supposed to feel old?   HA!
