I stole this from a fellow "new Queen" at The Diary of The Nello (not too sure what the name means as I have yet to fully examine her site). It looked like fun and instead of forwarding it in an email I thought I would just post it here and if anyone wants to read it they can. If they want to play along, they can just cut & paste the post it in their blog (or send out an email). The trick is to bold any of the ones that are true for you. Here we go:
- smoked a cigarette - grade nine - smoked "Craven A Menthol" for a week. I couldn't stand the smell and it made me nauseous. So I QUIT!!

- been in love - I'm a happily married woman
- been dumped - oh ya
- shoplifted- again, grade nine, local corner store. It was a bad year!
- been fired
- been in a fist fight - grade eight this time. A boy made a negative comment on a new hair cut and it came to blows. The vice principle broke us up and told us that he wouldn't tell our parents if we behaved around one another. Turns out he did tell our parents but I didn't fined out until about five years ago.

- been suspended from school
- been in a car accident - ya...see above...mom's car remember
- eaten a whole pint of ice cream in one night - Yup, maybe not a pint but definitely a tub of Ben & Jerry's. What's that? A half a pint? 1/4?

We had a very funny group of cadets that used to eat meals together. I once laughed at the wrong moment and milk came out my nose. Not a pretty sight folks!
- caught a snow flake on your tongue - I think I did this once... and it wasn't magical at all.

- watched the sun rise with someone you care about- G-Man and I got up for the last sunrise during our honeymoon. Bottle of champagne. Terribly romantic.
- blown bubbles - One day, while we were both in Vancouver, G and I drove around downtown and streamed bubbles out the window. Super fun. People either loved it or looked at us like we were idiots.

let's not forget skinny dipping in turtle lake, where jay says he say your you-know-what...
Ya, I believe that was the first time wasn't it. Oh so many times to keep track of!
