My high school buddies and I were always talking about how we should meet up, how we should visit again and what not.
But in typical fashion, it never really happened.
Something would always come up last minute and prevent one of us from coming. Even if 3 of us were free, there would always be one of us that had something else to do. Whether it’s their kids, or a business meeting, our meetups were always postponed. It probably went on like this for several years until finally, we all scheduled a date to see each other. I held my breath because I kept expecting something to come up at the last minute, but it never did. We planned on having a party with food, drinks and games to make up for all of this. I arrived early, and greeted my friends. As if 10 years hadn’t passed, we hit it off just like good old times. We talked, laughed and reminisced on all of our old memories. I was probably there for 4 or 5 hours, and it was just so good to see them. However, I had to leave early because I started my new job tomorrow as a heating and A/C specialist. I recently became a certified HVAC technician, and now that I was finally hired at a cooling corporation, I wanted to make my best impression and arrive nice and early. My friends completely understood and were just glad that I got to spend time with all of them like old times. It really was good seeing them again.
