Many sage people (and also Justin Beiber) advise "Never say never." Yet time and again, I do the things I swore that I would never do. In fact some of you were probably witnesses when I did some of these very things. You won't tell, right? But now, older, and hopefully a bit wiser, I am pulling a never-say-never-two-fer. I am actually doubling down on the nevers.
Ten years ago, I swore I would never plan another reunion. And here I am. And I am blogging; which I also said I would never do. It's not that I am anti-blog. It's more that I am a reader, not a writer. And I prefer to read things after a bit of steeping, a couple of drafts, proofing and editing. Yet here I sit, posting unedited text and sharing my thoughts just after they pop into my head. Rats.
What did you say you would never do? Maybe when you went through today's mail, you opened your reunion invitation and immediately vowed "I will NEVER go to another reunion." Really? Are you sure about that? Just follow my blog (I am literally gagging as I type that) and see if you don't change your mind.
Postscript: I will never win the lottery nor will I miraculously grow 2 or more inches 2 decades after puberty. I promise.
