Another 'Girls Night Out, and I'm beat! I think we either need to change the name for this event or advertise less. In addition to all the girls, at least six guys showed up including Dave Campbell, Scott Roth, Norm Schueckler, Kim Merrihew and Bill Irr. After arriving a few minutes late I linked up with my 'sisters' and it was as if we were never apart. In the spirit of the sisterhood, I cannot tell you who showed up with what looked like a roach clip on her purse, nor can I share some of the more interesting stories. I can tell you that conversations we had were about kids in grade school, high school and college, vacations, plans, family and friends, and ideas about getting together again. In other words, it was a typical night out with old friends, and everyone had a great time.
Each time I go to one of there events there are new faces, new names- opportunities to meet people I did not know. And each introduction has put me in touch with another interesting person, someone to talk to and enjoy the time getting to know them better. These meeting also highlight the fact that there are tons of friendly, interesting people out there. At times I struggle with whole process of introductions and small talk as you try to get to know someone. The shared experiences of our youth, and all the other things we have in common as classmates makes these small events fun and interesting.
Enough of the editorial stuff... the food was great at Brennan's, the company was great, and we all drank responsibly. It was announced that Kim Merrihew won the Clarence1973 Spring Golf Event. Kim shot either an 80 or 90, For his efforts he got a pat on the back and I think someone bought him a beer. Cancun seemed to be popular option for a Class Birthday Party next year... we'll see. In the mean time, there will be a meeting in the coming weeks to start the planning. I'll let you know as a point of contact is identified and the location and date firm up.
Hope to see YOU at the next Evening Out!
