My oldest and dearest friend in the entire world -- you may know her as Madge -- has just gotten some great news. She is 29 years old and has just gotten a new job as Vice Principal, which makes her the YOUNGEST person to ever secure this position in their school district.
I'm so proud of her that I want to send certified letters to all those assholes we grew up with who dared to insinuate we wouldn't be something one day.
It would read:
To whom it may annoy,Oh how sweet life can be at times. Madge, I am so proud of you! You done good kid!
Wow, been a long time since we talked. So long, in fact, you might not remember me too well. If you're struggling to place who I am, let me help you out. I was that fat kid with curly hair and glasses. You know, the one you were a total dick to. My friend was that uber-skinny kid with the super short hair and glasses. You were a dick to her too.
Anyway, its been a while since we were in touch so I thought I would take a moment to catch you up on things. Last I heard, you were raising your babies in your trailer in Mama's backyard, so I think I'm up-to-date on how things went for you. To this day I can clearly recall that you were voted "Most Likely To Succeed." I guess its a good thing they didn't specify what exactly you were to "succeed" at.
But I digress, this isn't about your "success." This is about Madge.
You see, things didn't turn out for Madge and I how we'd planned. She's not a renowned child counselor and I'm not a world famous journalist. We're both married and have families, though. We wound up with better personal lives than we ever could have imagined. We live in one of the largest cities in the country and are doing very well in the fields we ended up in.
Now, I could go on and on about how awesome our lives are, but I thought, "Nah, why say it when you can show it!"
So check this out...HA, losers! See what a success she is! SUCK IT!
All that teasing we endured as kids for being dorks? WAS TOTALLY WORTH IT. We will be seeing you at the 20 year reunion, bitches.
XXXOOOS,
Momma Pug
