Was watching tonight's High School Reunion eppy, and my sister walked in & caught the tail end of it. She's not been following the show at all, but happened to tune in at a pivotal shit-hitting-the-fan moment and consequently was riveted. She asks me: "Is she REALLY A HOOKER??" How the hell should I know? Umm, check for her in the Yellow Pages? No, actually what I replied was "Maybe? Not sure..."
I mean, if Maricela is NOT a hooker, than the big reveal here is just that Jessica is batguano loco. And that can't be the big huge mindblowing shocker that HSR promos have been hyping all season, well, because that fact is such a huge, obvious, NONshocker. On the other hand, I wonder -- if Jessica's not talked to Maricela in the 20yrs since high school how would she know that M is hookin'?? Do their pimps play racquetball together or something? Or maybe she was a hooker in high school? It seems so very far fetched. Although, if she's not some sort of shady lady, why did the previews for next eppy show so many shots of Scott W making his mega inner torment face?? Add to that M's secretive & teary pow wows with Jenny... looks rather suspect. But my gut is telling me that they're going to pull some sort of bait& switch with this thing. She's going to have some kind of secret shame, but not quite as wicked (or illegal)as being a hooker.
I just don't know..
I've sort of avoided the HSR website & blog as I've been into this show this season and I haven't wanted to delve much into the behind-the-scenes stuff ('twould squelch the show's magic...it's something akin to seeing the Muppets with all those puppeteers affixed to their asses) but after this episode, I might have to take a peek. Probably it won't enlighten me much. From what I've seen before (perusing the HSR Season 1 blog) those blogs are carefully designed to not have any spoilers whatsoever.

Just had to let you know that I enjoyed reading your blog. You're a really good writer - funny too.
I'm so glad to hear that! Hope you visit again...
Hey Sandra, were you as disappointed with last night's HSR as I was? I was kind of hoping they would give us some kind of conclusion to this whole “Big Secret” thing. Now if it was me and some “friend” went psycho and told the world, “You’re a hooker. You suck %/*$ for a living, bitch.” I’d have to say that my tendency would be to punch this “friend” out, and then I would be kicked out of the house, but wouldn’t that make great TV (okay, so I’m not a very nice person). Instead it looks like fish lips, oops I mean Jessica, gets her way because she’s accepted by the group, and Maricela now feels like an outsider, and we'll still probably never find out the truth. Errrr… why do I watch these stupid shows?
