I thought I would participate in the reunion of the spin cycle and talk about something that happened at my high school reunion.
When I signed up to participate in my 20th high school reunion, a questionnaire was sent to me to fill out. Many of the questions were pretty strait forward and did not give you the feeling that you were taking a final exam. One of them was: "Tell something that people would be surprised to know about you".
You have to realize that when I met my wife, she already had two teenagers (talk about being an instant parent). By the time I had my reunion, one of them already had a child of their own. Because of this, I put "I'm a grandparent" as my answer. After that I put it out of my mind.
At the reunion, someone I was having a conversation with chimed in: "I didn't know you had kids in high school". If you do the math, either I or my offspring would have to be pretty young in order for me to be a grandparent. All the same, it did make for interesting conversation.
What about you… do you have something that people would be surprised to know about you? Did you have an interesting conversation at your reunion? Perhaps you can go check out the Spin Cycle by clicking on the picture below and see what others have to say.

That is hysterical! I'm sure you threw a lot of people for a loop when they got that form back! You're linked and welcome back!
That's way too funny! They were probably all trying to figure out who you had a kid with in high school and how they never found out! ;)
SC: Reunions - Love 'em or Hate 'em?
That is good thinking. And a good way to give people more info without going on and on!
With Facebook, I think most of my HS knows what I'm up to now. I'm one of the few people who actually really like that I can be in touch with people from that long ago that live far away!
LOL!!! That is funny - I would have loved to be a fly on that wall....
Too funny! One of the ladies at my 20th reunion married someone who had five kids...one our age and had a child the same age as hers! Another one married the father of another classmate! Interesting stories at reunions!
No funny conversations--I skipped my 10 and my 20 is this summer. Still on the fence about going.
Perhaps I'll go to my 20th...not sure if I have anything this interesting to say though. That is pretty funny!
That's really funny! Great spin!
They were probably trying to figure out, who among them was your baby's mama. LOL
Great answer! Nice spin...
