    Going to my 30-year high school reunion at the beginning of August.
How do you feel about that? Excited? Do you still have a lot of friends from HS? I missed my 20 year and wish I had gone. I'll go to the 25, for sure.

I'm mostly going for the opportunity to ride my motorcycle to California, and to go to my friend's magic theater show.

I moved between my Sophomore and Junior years of High School from Washington to San Francisco. So the people I went to school with for most of my life had pretty much forgotten me by the time they graduated in WA, and the people in SF didn't know me really well, because I went to school on a compressed schedule and worked a full time job and played in bands when I was not actually at the school itself. The girl I went to prom with died many years ago, and the people I played music with have largely moved away from SF, which has become far-to-expensive-for-artist's.

But... 30 years, man! If yer gonna go to one, might as well be a significant one, right?

And my classmates include the bass player for Jane's Addiction, the pilot of Space X's Dragon spacecraft, and Tupac. (Not expecting Tupac to show up, tho.)

So there will definitely be interesting conversations to be had.
