He was in my gym class, which was mortifying.....I had to wear shorts and I was totally self-conscious! One day we were picking teams. There was only three of us left and he said "Your on my team"! I just about died and went to heaven.........he talked to me!!! LOL!! Now I can talk to them all and not bat an eyelash! :)Angela Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11072032390775076919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-59638933944862051252012-11-16T08:08:06.257-05:002012-11-16T08:08:06.257-05:00And the winner is...

One day just after we'd spent the afternoon, my three year old nephew came to spend the night announcing this man was going to propose to his mother at a plush dinner with elegant table setting she had prepared for the proposal.<br /><br />I ditched the guy because if my twice divorced sister had such strong feelings for a man I'd dated for years, I didn't want to have anything to do with a man who would seriously date two sisters at the same time.<br /><br />This is a story I don't tell in my family. Oh course, he didn't understand why I stopped dating him.bj maxwellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-9917747664406822932012-11-14T20:09:04.885-05:002012-11-14T20:09:04.885-05:00oops forgot my email just in case :)

It's horrible how these things can stay with you even many, many years later. My best friend in high school talked me into asking a boy to a girl-ask-boy-dance because he was the best friend of a boy she wanted to ask out. Against my better judgement I agree. I hadn't really dated and this boy was one of the most popular boys but I did it anyway. When I asked him he hit the locker with his hand and said "I knew it." I was mortified. But what was even worse, he said yes while the boy my friend asked said no. I had to go now and she wasn't going. What a mess. In hindsight I wish I had told him to jump in a lake lol. To make matters worse I got my period and had horrible cramps and was worried the whole night about having an accident. It was a night to forget lol.catsladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375770995988927860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-21625077481563137222012-11-14T17:28:04.271-05:002012-11-14T17:28:04.271-05:00What fun responses!

Spent days studying and going through my notes. Thankfully, could study through the weekend and so didn't bother leaving the apt for a couple of days. By the morning of the exam, adrenaline was coursing through my veins and I truly felt ready. Grabbed my backpack and coffee and headed for the door. Didn't make it past the door. The lock was stuck and I was on the second story of a duplex. The people renting the first floor were not home. I resorted to shouting out the window to someone hurrying by and the face that turned upward was that of my Literature prof. He was quite concerned and ran up the stairs to try to get me out. He failed and had to head to class because he had cut the time too close. In the end, I called the local Ace hardware store for advice and they had me use a butter knife to unscrew the lock. I got to the exam at the midway mark for time. Prof commented on the desperate measures students took to try to get out of his tests, but hid a smile. I was shaking with nerves and embarrassment, trying to keep up my GPA for a scholarship. Thank heavens he gave me extra time. Never lived the incident down with that prof or my classmate/friends.<br /><br />little lamb lst at yahoo dot comLilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13680968217522258788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2802601138878132017.post-61581523259845799632012-11-14T10:30:04.663-05:002012-11-14T10:30:04.663-05:00Thanks for stopping by, Crystal.
