  • Been drunk – if you care it’s easily resolved

    — Graduated high school (curses!) – well, but you’re ahead of that; don’t look back.

    — Kissed a girl – again, if you want to it’s out there; wait until Bridget comes back

    — Learned to snap my fingers – this is something you can learn; I did but now I can’t so well.

    — Had a credit card – you will; don’t worry; or not, so don’t worry

    — Gotten a tattoo; me either, let’s go together!

    — Been engaged – you will

    — Shoplifted – um, I have, not that interesting

    — Broken a bone – I have so count yourself lucky because I was 45 when it happened so, hey, life goes on!

    I have never:

    been overseas
    gone to a gypsy to have my fortune told

    there is this wonderful song from the Fantasticks, which I have been in and sang this song, called Just Once. check it out.
    Life is long.

    -I haven’t time traveled. You apparently have since it says on right up there that your posted this tomorrow.

    -I’ve never been drunk, or wanted to be for htat matter.

    -I’ve never tried recreational drugs. Not interested. Have no idea why. Not interested is mud wrestling either. To each his own.

    -I’ve never had a real enemy.

    -I’ve never been properly proposed to.

    -I’ve never finished college.

    -I’ve never belonged to a church I actually believed all the doctrines of. Call me a natural skeptic.

    -I’ve never had a day that was completely 100% awful. Every day has something in it that is at least interesting….even if it just the flip-down extra seats in the back of the hearse or the strange visions associated with a high fever.

    -I’ve never done anything I couldn’t remember the next day. Not that this is always a good thing.

  • You can’t snap your fingers either, Rebekah?! Wow, I feel a new kinship.

    I haven’t done any of those things either, except for graduating high school. I took the GED (ugh).

    Ugh! the scary thing is i HAVE done most of those things… lol

    for real you’ve never had a credit card?? lucky girl!

    I have never…

    - ridden a bull

    - been married

    - been pregnant

    - kissed a girl (though i’ve been kissed BY one – does that count?)

    - graduated high school (oh well, I still graduated college :P)

    - shoplifted, nor do i plan to…

    - been pierced in any strange or unnatural places (again, no desire to either)

    - gone skydiving

    “I’ve never done anything I couldn’t remember the next day. ”

    ahhh, this is the best part of being off your butt drunk… figuring out what you did the night before and how came to you wake up where you did! LOL

  • jean – I want to snap my fingers and maybe have a credit card. Everything else is on the “eh, no thanks” list. How about we compromise; you get a tattoo of my name! Then we’re both involved, sorta! C’mon, you know it’s a good idea. We can visit a gypsy together, that’s cheaper AND less painful.

    The Fantasticks! How about “Reckless and Terribly Gay” as a mission statement? “Velget gown, pink lapel!”

    stictchywitchy I agree with nearly all of the above, despite my mysterious time-traveling.

    The one exception; I have a rotten memory, so I’m often unsure what happened more than 24 hours ago. People say “how was your weekend?” and I have to give it serious thought…

    Rebekah – Rebekah, eh, godmygrith.wordpress.com? Something tells me your mind wandered whilst typing. =) But no, I can’t snap my fingers— Ben Creider couldn’t until he started student teaching, his co-operating teacher showed him how. I was stunned. We’ll have to track her down for finger-snapping lessons.

    I got a GED, too. SO boring.
    As to the other things on the list, I suspect we’ll both skip most of them. Heh!

    Sierra – I’m pretty sure all piercings fall into the “unnatural” category.

    Hey, if we were rich, we could go skydiving together! That’d be great!

    “I’m pretty sure all piercings fall into the “unnatural” category”

    welll… that’s true, but ears seem to be fairly acceptable even by most modest standards, and I do have one set of nice boring but highly functional and non-painful lobe-holes :)

    “Hey, if we were rich, we could go skydiving together! That’d be great!”

    hmmm…. i may take you up on that someday… *eg* though my guess is one day we’ll both have enough money to do the crazyness, and by then we’ll probably be too old to risk broken bones… hahaha oh well.

    Sierra – In India, little girls and old ladies alike have pierced noses. As a student teacher, I know at least thirty little boys with earrings. Modesty is cultural.
    I wish we were rich, skydiving together’d be a ton of fun.

  • Oops! You’re right, my mind definitely wandered. Feel free to go back and comment-edit!

    One thing I’ve never done — been Rebekah for a day! I guess your blog gives me a tiny bit of your day. But I’m happy to be me.

  • Phoebe I’ll leave history as it is. And if you HAD to trade lives with someone else for a day, I hope you’d choose someone in a more exotic corner of the world. At LEAST someone who lives more than five miles away.

    DylanYou, me, and a bassoon. Or a canoe. I’m a lousy paddler, I warn you now. And if you thought my paddling was lousy, wait til you see me with a bassoon.

    “In India, little girls and old ladies alike have pierced noses. As a student teacher, I know at least thirty little boys with earrings. Modesty is cultural.”

    *sigh* true. Okay you force me to be more specific – I have never had my lips, tongue, chin, hands, or sexual organs pierced, nor do I intend to, though I hear the latter can be very rewarding….

    HA! ;-P

    “I wish we were rich, skydiving together’d be a ton of fun”

    oh dear, you said the taboo “w” word..in the words of my mom “careful what you wish for….”

    ok that settles it, if I ever actually screw up the courage to jump out of a perfectly good aircraft for the purposes of insane entertainment, you will be my partner in crime!

    ((huggles))

    Piercing sex organs is a risk I’m not willing to take. Don’t ask me why I’m willing to skydive, but not shove a needle through AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH! I can’t even type it.

    Also, some piercings (like wrists) seem to reject very quickly. Your body says “No thanks, bracelets are good enough!” and kindly heals the wound for you. Bodies can be so efficient.

    It’s so nice to have a partner in crime. =)
