Memories

I’m the kind of person that does what I want & says what I want. Yes, this can be good but it can be bad. I’m as stubborn as a mule and I hate to be told I’m stubborn. You can guarantee I’ll follow the statement “You’re so stubborn” with either “Your mom is stubborn” or “NO I AM NOT” Neither are mature, right? I’ve said and done things that I regret. I’ve done some things that were hurtful that I don’t regret. Some things, I just regret getting caught. Other things, I just have no explanations.

Anyway that is irrelevant as to where I’m going. As a kid I did what I wanted. Therefore, I got in trouble A LOT. I had (and still do) a smart mouth and I really dread when we have kids. I remember when my mom & I went to pick out shoes. For whatever reason, my mom gave me the choice of the red pair of blue pair. There was a brown pair sitting next to them. Guess what choice I said? Yep, brown. Well, I think I said to my mom “Read my lips: BROWN”. No I wasn’t being sassy or rude. The salesman even said “I don’t think that’s anyway to talk to your mother”. Calm down dude. I was quoting Miss Piggy. See, I quote movies, tv shows, songs whatever. I was, and still am, a huge huge huge Muppets fan. I remember singing and dancing when the intro song came on.



I made a point to stand up & jam out & my parents laughing. I have a few seasons on DVD and I still jam.

My dad & I were talking the other day about things I did as a kid, teenager & even as an adult. For whatever reason, whenever I wasn’t behaving as a kid, he would pick up the phone and say he was going to call the gypsies. I mean, I cried. I freaked out. That was the one thing, for a certain period of time that got me to behave. I was convinced that they would literally be on our doorsteps to take me away from my parents. Little did I know, it wasn’t real!! I wonder, when we have kids, will this work on them? Don’t think I won’t try it!
