Re: GTKY: Have You Ever...
1. Ordered anything from an infomercial? If so, what? Not directly from an infomercial, but I bought the Instyler hair thing at Macy's and I had originally seen how awesome it is in an infomercial.
2. Been in a catfight? Brief story, please! I slapped a girl when I was in 8th grade, I don't really remember why. But I am sure she deserved it. In college I was on the verge of a catfight with my roommates best friend from home because she accused me of cheating at Flip Cup. Do NOT doubt my flip cup skills.
3. Been to Europe? Where? No but I am dying to go!
4. Skinny dipped? No, never had the opportunity!
5. Eaten alligator? Yup! Alligator bites in Florida. Also when I was in Australia I had croc pizza which was good.
6. Hiked a mountain over 4000ft? If so, which? Nope
7. Kept a diary? Do you still? I used to when I was younger. I found one the other day and I basically had a crush on a new boy every day. Pretty awesome.
8. Farted in a very embarassing situation?... Miss Music, we already know your answer to this one! Not that I can recall. I had a situation with this the other day. I was getting holiday pictures done and the girl bent down to lift DS up a little and reposition him, and totally ripped a loud one. She was so embarassed but we told her not to even worry about it.
9. Given a speech publicly? Yes, I was in FBLA in high school and I had to at state and national meetings. It got me over my fear really quick!
10. Rubbed shoulders with a celebrity? No, I have served celebrities though working at an arena/amphitheater in college in the backstage catering department.
Fun!
1. Ordered anything from an infomercial? If so, what? No, but I have gotten something "as seen on TV" in a store. It was the shake weight. I used it all of about 1 time.
2. Been in a catfight? Brief story, please! Yes. I played college soccer and a girl on the other team pulled my hair (who does that???) Im typically a mellow person, but seriously...who pulls hair? So when the ref wasn't looking I shoved her down flat on her ass. Her teamates saw me and all started freaking out yelling and screaming, but the ref saw nothing so I got away with it. Not really a cat fight, but the closest I have come.
3. Been to Europe? Where? No
But I have been to China!
4. Skinny dipped? Sadly, no! I need to get with the program here.
5. Eaten alligator? Of course! I am from Alabama and went to college in Florida. Its good!
6. Hiked a mountain over 4000ft? If so, which? Nope.
7. Kept a diary? Do you still? I probably started about 10 diaries when I was younger, but only made it to day 4 or 5 before giving up. Haha
8. Farted in a very embarassing situation?... Miss Music, we already know your answer to this one! The only one I can think of was when I was the new girl at school in second grade. I farted when I went to sit down after the teacher intorduced me to the class. Not cool.
9. Given a speech publicly? Only in classes or weddings, nothing exciting.
10. Rubbed shoulders with a celebrity? LOL...rubbed shoulders. I saw Katherine Zeta Jones walking her dog in NYC. Does that count?

10. Rubbed shoulders with a celebrity? Owen had baby gym class with "Big Baby" Davis (Boston Celtics) and I've worked in theatre/dance with actor Ed Hermann (Grandpa from Gilmore Girls)
I went on a trip to France with my French class in high school, studied abroad in Paris in college, had a friend that lived abroad in Germany for a year I visited, and the DH and I took a European vacay last year before we started trying to get PG. I love to travel.
I was 16 and we were visiting my Grandparents in Florida. I have always wanted to drive a golf cart and in NY if you go on a course you have to pay the full amount even if your not golfing. I went with my dad because apparently in FL if you don't play you don't pay. Also, renting a cart was like 10 dollars or something ridiculously cheap. So, we get there and we find out because of the soggy grounds we weren't able to rent a cart. Somehow I was then given the job of being a caddy for my dad. I was 15, it was 995 degrees and I was pissed! We were on the last hole and I see this green thing coming out from a pond 30 feet away. I immediately freak out and my dad says, "just don't pay attention to him" and he hands me a club so I can apparently beat him when he gets close. Um, its en effin alligator dad. So, now he is slowly creeping up and I remember a national geographic show I saw once saying that alligators can't run zig zags. So, off I went running 100 mph in zig zags. That guy didn't stand a chance. Chased me for a hot second then jumped back into his pond. My dad kept playing. We didn't speak for the rest of the vacation.
I hold on so hard and pray that I won't say something wrong. I look at the stars and dream that the universe was ours.
Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event.
