To go, or not to go?

Between You and [EVENT ORGANIZER OF MY GRADUATING CLASS]
Hi Christina,
I'm working with [CLASS PRESIDENT] and [CLASS VICE PRESIDENT] on the 10 year reunion. We have a facebook group page and we are collecting everyone's contact information to send invitations to the Ten Year Reunion.
Please join the Group so that you can be up-to-date on the planning of the reunion. Here is the link: http:// www.facebook.com/doyoureallywanttogotothisthing?really?
Please either email me your current contact information at organize.this@yourfucking10yearreunion.com or send through facebook.
Hope that you are doing well,
[EVENT ORGANIZER OF MY GRADUATING CLASS]"
Crap. Since I can count to 10, I knew this was coming. I also know it's not a HUGE deal. It's one night of awkward conversation and dancing to bad music (Prom Night II: Now The Drinkin's Legal), but is it necessary? The advent of Facebook sort of makes the act of the reunion obsolete. I already know who got married, who got knocked up, who got fat, because the Internet told me so. There most likely won't be any surprises. I also worry- I've had TEN YEARS to get it together, and I don't have much to show. No babies, no engagement rings, no Tonys. My best friend says, "Are you kidding? Of course we're going! We're the only ones who didn't get boring jobs. Or fat." But I don't know. Did any of you go to you 10-year reunion? Was it worth it?
UPDATE: Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion has just started on a random cable channel. Possibly, I should watch it for inspiration.
