  1. Yes! I’ve never read Harry Potter or LOTR. I’m so happy I’m not the only one. I did read the Hobbit, and then got 1/4 way through the first LOTR and then put it down. I’m also with you on the inability to tan, it blows.

    I’ve never shot a gun either, and I hope most people have never stabbed anyone!

    And you’ve never gotten a ticket? Damn…not even a parking ticket?

  2. I beg to differ about camping! You came to Camp Hiawatha with me one summer for a week! Did you forget that? Remember my mom put in for the church to pay for you and they did. And I loved Camp Hiawatha and you hated it! GRRRR….You didn’t like it so much that look, you forgot it!

  3. Generally speaking, I HATE beer. But there is little in the world better than knocking back a cold Blue Moon on a 95 degree day while Im sitting at the pool.

  4. It’s great, I like all. but, I want to do cosmetic surgery.

  5. Plastic – Thanks. Hey, I understand why people want to. But, when people start looking like cats or monsters, I will make fun of them.

    Vinyl – Blue Moon’s better than Zima?

    Ange – Hey, I mean in a tent or camper. Making my own food. At that camp we went into buildings and had a store where we could buy food. This, of course I remember clearly. LOL!

    Jen 512- I drive pretty safely actually.

  6. She drives too SLOW and scary in that way actually! LOL

  7. You SO should write a book! Your talent smacks of Jen Lancaster! Have you read any of her stuff? Totally hilarious! If you need a laugh read the 3 books she has out. If she can do it and make money you could too!! You definately have talent!

  8. I, also, have never shot a gun or stabbed someone and have not been to a professional GAME OF ANY KIND!
    I have, however, eaten blue cheese, been tattooed, and I smoked for years ( but I quit!)
    I hope things are okay, I am so worried about you!!!!

  9. Wow – this is a great post idea. The one that surprised me the most was that you didn’t read Harry Potter or LOTR. Only because I know what a writer/reader you are. I tried reading LOTR but couldn’t get through it. The movie was great though. ;)

  10. Yeah, what about (SA Camp). You had a great time sista!!!!! :) How could you forget that, we had a blast.
