Mary's Story

I'm much older and definitely wiser than when I attended high school. I worked for several years before deciding to attend college where I obtained a Bachelor's Degree in English Literature. Writing non-fiction is more than a hobby for me, as I've written several short stories and am working on my autobiography. These writings are laced with wit, sarcasm and extremely dry humor, as I find this method to be a most effective path to travel in this life. My guilty pleasures include travel, dabbling a bit at the local casino and treating myself to frozen yogurt when I feel I've been a very good girl. I'd love to attend a reunion but fear it would mirror the ten year reunion, which by the way, almost caused me to have a nervous breakdown.....just kidding. It was indeed difficult seeing so many people I didn't recognize. Some seemed far too old for me to have graduated in the same year as they did. Still others....had no hair...mostly the men. The most painful part of attending that reunion was also the most exciting part because several cute guys who never gave me the time of day in school....decided to chat both of my ears off that evening. I was also thrilled to see that Jill Hoffman could have once again grabbed the "best looking" award even ten years down the road. Pat Seta was a joy to see that night. It was definitely more pleasureable than when I attended the Pendulum Dance with him upon my Italian Dad's insistance. At the time, I had a crush on Pat's brother, Mario. Mario had another date and well, I did what all good Italian girls do....I caved in to ...Expand for more
my Dad. It was a grand night, I must say. I ran into Pat many years ago at LaRosa's on Boudinot Avenue. He was clueless as to who I was when I spoke to him. I think that was both good and bad because why try to spark that kindling into a flame again, right? It was only a dance, get over it. I'm certain Pat has long since met his dream woman because he was such a sweet man. As for me....I met a great man at GE and we were married for 15 years. He passed away 18 years ago. I have become somewhat of a loner at this point. Or, perhaps I should say that I like myself...a lot....and have no trouble spending lots of time with just myself. Friends are a valuable commidity so I make a conscious effort to give of myself to all of them and it is always reciprocated. I don't have a clue how I'd like friends to remember me but I know that I'd like them to forget about all of those multi-colored knee socks I wore in Mr. Boggs English class in an effort to try and make my skirt seem a bit longer. I truly wasn't the nerd I appeared to be....honestly, I wasn't....okay, perhaps just a bit. Our family wasn't privileged so if the only clean socks available belonged to one of my brothers, well, that's what I wore. Our family was a large Italian family with lots of traditions and countless rules. I believe those values instilled in me made the path through life almost a seamless journey. If nothing else, it gave me the courage to continue when adversity came my way. At any rate, I'm a lovable and sometimes a bit neurotic woman at this point in my life. Ahh..Life is Great!
