It really annoys me how big and how many labes are in american clothes. The labels are overisized, their are normally 5 of them and they have more than ten languages. The implication is you should cut them off but that is nota great solution since it still leaves a small stub and you know the information on how to wash my shirt might be something I want to know.

One of my fillings failed at the back end of last week and honestly it's pretty painful. Booked at the dentist tomorrow. Hopefully it'll be an easy fix, but we'll see.

My high school is hosting a 20 year reunion. I certainly wasn’t going to fly to attend it but now they are also doing a zoom meeting. Everyone will have 3 minutes to talk.

I don’t know if the flaw is with me or with the idea of a 20 year reunion but I find myself completely uninterested. I know people from highschool who I speak to all the time and as for the rest if we haven’t kept in touch for 30 years do we have any reason to talk now? Even for nostalgia?

Never really seen anyone talk about one outside of TV

Depends on how much you value putting time and effort into that network of people. If not that much, send your regards somehow and keep it moving.

The high school network that people put significant time and energy into has perhaps moved more towards college or grad school these days.

'Hi guys, great to see you all.' then wave, smile, and wait for the next person to speak.
