I got an e-mail from old high school buddy, Tracie (hi Tracie!) this morning. One of those e-mail-memes. I figured rather than follow regular protocol, I'd make an entry out of it so you can all know more trivia about me. In case there's a test.
So:
"Welcome to the 2007 edition of getting to know your friends. What you are supposed to do is copy (not forward) this entire e-mail and paste it onto a new e-mail that you'll send.
Change all the answers so they apply to you, and then send this to a whole
bunch of people including the
person who sent it to you. The theory is that you will earn a lot of little
things about your friends, if you did not know them already."
1. What time did you get up this morning? six frickin' forty two a. m.
2. Coffee or tea? Coffee in the morning, herbal tea at night
3. What was the last film you saw at the movies? You know, I had that kid of mine working at a theatre all summer long and I could have seen all the free movies I wanted. Did I go to one? I did not. Does he still work there? No he doesn't. Do I wish I could have that option again? No because I hate going to movies in theatres these days. I've been sprayed with perfume and some fucker shook their cherry icee so much that it splashed on me, while I was sitting behind them. I said something to the dumb broad and she wouldn't acknowledge me then left before the movie ended and the confrontation I was going to give her. Oh. I suppose I could have just answered this question more simply with a "can't remember because it's been awhile" instead.

Spending the weekend with my dad in Minneapolis (while we were in transition between our small town and moving up to the city, my dad had an apartment in Loring Park and I got to visit him once). I'll never forget going to the top of the Foshay Tower, climbing the steps of the Basilica and shopping for a Barbie Doll in Woolworth's basement. It gave me the love I had for office buildings that one day lead me to a career in commercial real estate - in the very same building with Woolworths!
And I can't let this one go without saying, the time my junior high school friend and I made Chocolate Chip Cookies. We made the dough at my house then hopped on our bikes and went to her house to bake them. I still think of that every time I drive on the same road. Me biking down the street with an open bowl of cookie dough on my lap.
