One of my favorite LOL movies is Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, possibly because, although I actually mostly enjoyed high school, I've never had any desire to attend any of my reunions, so I can enjoy their misadventure vicariously. Here's the trailer, for those of you who've never seen the movie:
I'm currently working on Ricochet, High Risk #5, which is sexy SEAL Sax Douchett's story. Some of you may remember him as Quinn McKade's sniper spotter from Crossfire. Well, in Ricochet, Sax has returned home to the bayou, just as former students start arriving in the small town for their high school reunions.
Which would be bad enough. But then someone begins killing off "most likely to" classmates. You know the type: The person most likely to become a gazillionaire; the person mostly likely to have a porn star named after them; the person most likely to be married more times than Elizabeth Taylor; the person most likely to be indicted for running a Ponzi scheme hedge fund, etc. Bayou bad boy Sax, was, by the way, voted both the most likely to become a rock star AND the most likely to miss his 10th reunion because he was in prison.
I was passing a way good time in with Sax and Kara Conway, Bayou Elysian's sheriff, when, out of the blue last week, I received an invitation to -- you guessed it -- attend my own class reunion. Which is taking place this summer across the country back in Oregon. At the same time grandbabies are coming to visit and the week before I have to turn Sax's story in to my publisher. So, I figure that lets me off the hook.
However, just the idea of getting back into high school mode was giving me hives when I saw this news report about a woman who came up with a unique way of handling her 10th year reunion.
Enjoy.

I love the idea of returning to high school for a reunion. i had such a great time while i was there!But in my country we don't do that often. By the way i love this movie too!!Have great weekend!!!!!
I have never been to my high school reunion and I don't think I really want to go if it came up now. I did not hang out with a lot of kids from high school. I know a few of them have passed away. I would love though to see some of my old teachers if they were still alive. I had the biggest crush on one of them and I would love to see if he is still as good looking now as he was back then.
I never went to my class reunion for I couldn't make it back home, but since I had cousins in my class and my older brother went in my place, they had a goodime but then they were quite popular the me. I don't care if I ever went to one. Carole
