I didn't even know that this site even existed until I recieved that postcard in the mail. Thanks to whomever coordinated that effort for making me feel even older than I already am. In all honesty though, I am happy to say that I have no gray hair and haven't gained a pound since graduation. Yes! I would like to say that this is because of good genes, but if you have ever seen my dad, you would know that the attribution is simply impossible. So, I would like to instead raise a glass to those saintly gentlemen running the distilleries. God Bless.
Since you last met me, I've been up and down, over and out and back again. I've been in and out of jail, woken up next to people I won't describe (I like to think of that as "charity" -- thankfully I don't remember), took so much acid that I wound up in some suburb of Madison having breakfast with senior citizens at McDonald's (I live in Milwaukee -- still don't know how that one happened), drank a case of Stroh's with bodybuilders at State Fair -- I could go on and on with this.
You know what? I'm doing fine! I'm totally happy and I wouldn't change a thing. In the words of the legendary Edith Piaf, "I regret nothing." Yes, some of these escapades take a toll, but now we have Botox, so what the hell, right?
I pulled my stint in the corporate world -- made a lot of money -- but I hated it. I guess I am just not the political type. It was a good excuse to buy Balenciaga and Zegna, but those corporate types seem to value a sensible manager's shoe to anything else. I feel sorry for their spouses.
I currently assist challenged students at Milwaukee Area Technical College with writing and communication skills. It can be very challenging for me, but at the end it is very rewarding. I guess when you work with women who gave up their kids for crack, prostituted themselves yet turned themselves around, then one's everyday annoyances don't seem so bad. I'm starting my graduate program (MSE) this fall, and I'm looking forward to it.
Don't worry, I'm pretty much the same as I always ways -- maybe a little more refined. I'm not sure if I will attend the 20th. I don't know what to wear. So, if you have any suggestions, please send them my way. However, I don't think I can pull off Helen Gosowitz -- someone have a polyester jumper??
