Earlier this evening, Thisbe drank a Diet Coke.
It is now 2:15 am. Thisbe is WIDE AWAKE. Because Thisbe forgot the cardinal rule of drinks: no caffeine.
In a desperate attempt to get tired, Thisbe went to the alumni site for her high school.
Several interesting things to note:
1) Exactly ONE of Thisbe's high school friends is registered on the alumni site. Someone Thisbe no longer talks to. All remaining friends (like Thisbe) appear to totally disdain the site.
2) Many of the people in Thisbe's graduating class have children now (not surprising).
3) Many of the people in Thisbe's graduating class who have children felt the need to post pictures of those children on their profiles. Let's just say, it was a better choice for some people than for others.
4) At least one person who Thisbe went to high school with posed for Playboy, but may well have changed her mind about whether that was a good idea as she now has an uber-Christian blog.
5) Quite a few of the registered alumni are unmarried.
6) The unmarried alumni do not appear to be part of the unbelievably geeky crowd (aka Thisbe & her friends), rather, many of them were part of the "popular" crowd. Could they have [gasp] peaked in high school? Heh.
7) Sadly, (really) at least three classmates (of the 48 registered) have gotten divorced. [Thisbe knows this because of the way their profiles have changed over the last several years].
8) Thisbe has spoken to exactly ONE person on the list of 48 people from her graduating class in the last 7 years. And only because she ran into this person during a visit to the Ancestral Home.
Thisbe is not sure what any of this means, but is sure of one thing: No more diet coke.
Today's Project: Wristies, wristies, wristies
Today's Life Observation: Writer's strike? Bad for Thisbe's TV. WRITERS! PLEASE FIX!

2:15. Scary things can happen at 2:15. I was finishing an elf hat. One should not be making pom poms at or after 2am. :)
