I'm willing to share small tidbits of me. Who I am. What I experience. Why I do what I do. Just ramdom thoughts from me. Enjoy!
Who?
Name::Random me From::California, United States
I am a wife and mother of two boys. I work full-time in the electronics industry. It took me 6 years to graduate college (no, I'm not embarrassed-I finished, Dammit!) SJSU class of 1990. I love to cook, because I love good food. I'll pass on sweets, but will eat something with garlic or onion in a minute. I HATE cheese, except Mozzerella on pizza-and that has to be combination pizza. I hate chick flicks, but love a good thriller. My husband and I are real estate investors on the side. View my complete profile
There was an assigment on 2Peas this week to journal about 10 stupid things you did as a child. So, I thought I would participate. What have I got to loose? Here goes:
Brushing my teeth with face cream because it was in a tube similar to toothpaste. It tasted awful, and I did it more than once. Actually, I did it every morning until my mother pointed out it was not toothpaste. What a relief!
Eating cheese up until the age of 3, knowing it made me throw up in my mouth a little each time I ate it. I finally told my mother I didn't like it and would no longer be eating it.
Begging my mother to send me to school wearing a afro. Bad idea because my hair was nearly halfway down my back, and there is a certain length where the hair, no matter how nappy, does not form a round afro. It was more Bozo-like than Afro-like.
Busting my parents putting out "Santa's" gifts on Christmas eve when I was 6. Ruined the whole experience for me.
Using an eyepencil to write my brother's name on my parent's bedroom furniture to get him in trouble. It was soooo obvious it was me. I was 4 and he was in first grade and he really knew how to write. I wasn't so good at it.
Quite often I wore a towel over my head so I could swing it like Barbie's hair.
Was a loyal Dragnet and Hawaii 5-0 fan at the age of 5. I HAD to watch it everytime it was on--had no idea what was going on, but just HAD to watch it. Had to....had to...
Ate yellow onions like apples. I dont remember this because I was a baby, but others remind me of this.
My bestfriend and I wouldn't do anything without our Panasonic tape recorders by our sides. We would use our tape recorders to tape soap operas with sound affects and commercials we would create. We had character names like Brock Broccoli and Justin Case. We also recordered our favorite songs off of the radio by placing the recorder in front of the stereo speaker.
Not realizing those tiny chocolate bars in my parent's medicine cabinet were NOT actually chocolate. I think I messed up every pair of underwear I had in one day. And never told a soul until laundry day. (Why did it have to taste so much like chocolate?)
