When Was Your First Time?
A meme, because Knitting the Blues did it, so why not me, too.
1. Who was your first prom date? My school only did a senior prom, so I went with my boyfriend Bob. Alex. That guy. It was a good time, as I recall- I got to say hi to my friend David who looked darn good in a tux (he looked more handsome at his wedding, though, since his happiness shone through). I remember sitting with Alex's friends, more than mine, which was fine, but meant that it wasn't exactly my crowd.
2. Do you still talk to your first love? I haven't spoken to him lately- I know he got married last summer, to a girl who was in my sister's class in school. Good for him!
3. What was your first alcoholic drink? Wine, for Shabbat. My first drink-drink though was a kahlua and cream at a family party when I was... a fairly early teen. My aunt thought I should learn how to pace a drink, and I paced it so well that the milk was warm by the time I finished it!
4. What was your first job? I worked at Northern Reflections at a mall- they sold tees and shorts and things. Think teacher-type clothes. My mom and I wore their stuff almost exclusively.
5. What was your first car? I drove my Dad's car in high school, but my first car is my Toyota Camry! I call her Bizness, and she's going strong 5 years in.
6. Who was the first person to text you today? I don't text much. Last text was from my sister, which is pretty normal. She asked me a question and I didn't know the answer- also normal.
7. Who is the first person you thought of this morning? Probably Jamie.
8. Who was your first grade teacher? The name escapes me... but I liked her.
9. Where did you go on your first ride on an airplane? No idea, I was real little! The first time I went on a plane ride alone was to visit my aunt and uncle in California, when I was 8.
10. Who was your first best friend and are you still friends? Caroline LaChance was my best friend in elementary school, but she moved away. I remember she played guitar, but left-handed (her guitar was strung "backwards"). After that, my soulmate and best friend and everything to me until our horrible friendship-ending fight in 8th grade... Susanne. I hear she's a doctor now. We only spoke once, for about a minute, from our fight in 8th grade until this very moment. And that minute wasn't until senior year of high school, when I went back to NH while visiting colleges. Friendship breakups are worse than any breakup with a lover, by a million miles of hurt.
11. What was your first sport played? You're joking, right? I did fence...
12. Where was your first sleepover? Probably at Wayne and Cheryl's, friends of my Mom- they had a daughter a few months younger than me.
13. Who was the first person you talked to this morning? My cubicle mate. I don't talk until I'm at work, since I live alone and I don't talk on the metro in the morning. It's bad form.
14. Whose wedding were you first in? Sharyn's!
15. What was the first thing you did this morning? Looked at the clock and realized I'd ignored 3 alarms yet again. Pondered skipping a shower and breakfast, but decided just to be 10 minutes late so I could actually shower AND have coffee.
16. What was the first concert you went to? The first one I remember? I swear it was Chubby Checker in Concord, NH. First real live cool rock show? HFSTival in 1999.
17. What was your first tattoo or piercing? One hole per ear, I'm so boring.
18. What was the first foreign country you went to? Canada, or maybe Mexico with my parents very briefly.
19. What was your first run in with the law? My friend was driving and got pulled over by a cop for speeding. The cop thought my friend was kidnapping me for dastardly reasons, and I had a hard time explaining that he was just driving me home from stage crew, because I didn't have a license yet! No licentious conduct whatsoever. He ended up getting out of the ticket, I think...
20. When was your first detention? I got a green slip for being in the cafeteria when I was supposed to be heading out for a field trip. I was only in the cafeteria looking for my class, though. I don't recall ever earning detention, though I voluntarily skipped recess to stay out of the cold in NH winters.
21. What was the first state you lived in? New Hampshire!
22. Who was the first person to break your heart? Susanne. Mike did it pretty good, too, though.
23. Who was your first roommate? Rosemary.
24. Where did you go in your first limo ride? Never been!
