Firsts

A little light on content around here lately, huh? I've written a few posts that I decided weren't really appropriate. I received the catharsis of writing them, so I won't be posting them.

Here's a fun meme from Michelle at Bleeding Espresso. Play with me?


1. Who was your FIRST prom date?
I didn't go to prom.

2. Do you still talk to your FIRST love?
Nope.

3. What was your FIRST alcoholic drink?
Beer. Probably a Coors pony.

4. What was your FIRST job?
The log flume operator at a local (now defunct) amusement park. I made a whopping $3.15 an hour!

5. What was your FIRST car?
A white 1985 Ford Thunderbird. I got it for my 15th birthday (the driving age in LA) in 1988.

6. Who was the FIRST person to text you today?
Laura.

7. Who is the FIRST person you thought of this morning?
My boss as I had a 7 a.m. conference call with him.

8. Who was your FIRST grade teacher?

9. Where did you go on your FIRST ride on an airplane?
Florida, when I was two to Disneyland. I think...maybe there was an earlier one?

10. Who was your FIRST best friend & do you still talk?
Gail Friscotty, she lived down the street from me and I'm fairly certain that's not how you spell her name. I never spoke to her after I moved in kindergarten.

I have no recollection, but I'm going to guess it was with Robin Johnson in the first or second grade.

12. Who was the FIRST person you talked to today?
My boss.

Made the bed.

I wonder what the "message" is that your first concert was Milli Vanilli. I loved working out to their music back in the day.

Oh no! Were your cathardic posts about obnoxious upstairs neighbors who are perpetually stealing your ladders and taking up space with their luggage and their noisy kid who runs around at all hours of the day and then decides to wake up at 4AM and PLAY every day for the past week?

If its any consequence, those things all annoy me too :)

P.S. My first concert was Paula Abdul and Color Me Badd :) SWEET!

I'll play.

Miss seeing you around, but I'm glad what you wrote helped, even if it didn't make it to prime time.

RE: #23 - I just wrote to someone yesterday about how much I miss my maternal grandmother still. Losing my other grandparents was hard, but losing her ... well, I really can't describe it.
