Ok, my turn:
- The officiant at my wedding was my grandfather – as in California, anyone can get a license for a day to perform a wedding.
- I was in third grade the first time I tried to smoke a cigarette, thanks to some super-mature sisters, Amy and Lisa Weber, and a social force now known as peer pressure.
- It took me over one year to acheive each of my pregnancies. Details available to friends, family and strangers only on a need-to-know-basis, which means that if you have problems of your own and want to compare notes, I am more than happy to share my experiences, but if you are simply curious or nosy, then you don’t need to know more than that.
- I wish I were an artist.
- I can’t sing either (see Heather’s list below) and was asked to be more quiet during group singing in elementary school because I threw others off-key.
I was just discussing the whole internet license with someone. One of my favorite shows is Friends. Did you see the one where Joey ( Matt Le Blanc) got an internet license to marry Chandler and Monica? Funny, I didn’t know it could really happen!
My older brother made me smoke with him when I was about 8, he was sixteen. I had caught him, so he figured if I smoked I couldn’t tell on him without telling on myself too. What A guy!
Whitney, I thought that you and Heather should know that my favorite people in the world–my best friend, my husband, and pretty much all of my family–are shockingly tone-deaf. Now I can count you in that category, but I actually think it’s a sign of superior character. You may wish to be an artist, but my fantasy is to be a singer, even though I’m in the category only slightly beyond just-being-able-to-carry-a-tune. *Sigh.* Look at it this way: that person on rookiemoms.com who wrote the sorry note with all the y’all’s has a pretty good voice, right? But she’s also prone to driving a car with her baby in her lap.
Feel better? 🙂
