Backward Day
A young twenty-something man was waving at people gawking at him in the parking lot while loading several pounds of burgers, loaves of bread, and cartons of beer into the trunk of our car. My boyfriend Tony was a sight to behold in any crowd, with his blonde hair and muscular build. But today, what was catching the crowd’s attention was his inside-out shirt, pants, and canvas hat.

Nothing.” Lisa stopped Jeff as he went to walk away, “Wait Honey there’s something else.” “Oh yeah my Golf Digest. Good looking out Lis,” said Jeff. “No, Jeff, you have an invitation,” said Lisa. “It’s to your twentieth high school reunion.

What day is the reunion? The 26th? Up no c...
