Amanda:
Yeah. Oh, are you going to the class reunion in two weeks?
James:
Uh, I've heard about it, but I'm not sure. Where is it anyway?
Amanda:
The reunion is going to be held at the Mountain Country Club across from Park City.
James:
Man, that's a nice place. Yeah, so, and what time does it start?
Amanda:
I think it starts at six.

And how much does it cost? You know, those reunions sometimes are really pricey.
Amanda:
Well, it's $20 a ticket that includes dinner and entertainment.
James:
And what kind of entertainment are they going to have?
Amanda:
They're gonna have a live jazz band and dancing.
James:
Well, I'm not interested in dancing. Jazz band. That doesn't sound bad. So. Well, who's organizing the event this time?

Do you remember Chad Phillips?

Oh, yeah. Wasn't he the quarterback on the football team?

Right. Right. Well, he married Sara Rogers.
James:
Oh. Sara Rogers.
Amanda:
Yeah. And they're in charge of the event. So what do you think? Are you gonna go?
James:
Well, I don't know. Sara Roberts. Oh. Rogers. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I never really fit in to high school, and I was kind of a loner. And to be honest, I remember asking Sara out on a date and she turned me down. She said, I know. And she said she was sick. And it turned out she went out with someone else that night. And, I don't know, this could be a little awkward, don't you think?
Amanda:
Well, why don't we go together?
James:
Are you sure?
Amanda:
Yeah.
James:
Well, sure. Uh, why not? Um, can I be honest?
