Go to the reunion? Of course I’m not going to the reunion! I’m the one who left after ninth grade, remember? Got kicked out of one school and bounced out of the next. At the fourth high school I attended, I walked into the office and said, “I really need to graduate. I can do two years in one.” They agreed to let me try and I did it—stoned. I’m the only one in our class who never went to college. Why would I go to the reunion?
