s/o What Ridiculous Crap Did You Do?
As a kid? Teen?
When I was 3 or 4 apparently I spit on a nurse who was giving me my shots.
I snuck out of the house a few times when I was 13 or 14.
Re: s/o What Ridiculous Crap Did You Do?
When I got my ears pierced as a little kid, I kicked the lady when she did the first ear. She told my mom she wouldn't pierce my other one if my mom didn't stop me from kicking her again. I was a pretty good and quiet kid though.
In high school, I snuck out so much my screen wouldn't stay on my window anymore. I would leave my mom a note though that said something like "Mom, I'm sorry I snuck out. I'll be home later." just in case she ever came into my room, I knew she'd be less pissed if she at least knew I snuck out and didn't think I was kidnapped or something.
Most ridiculous thing I did was: In 10th grade, the 11th grade physics classes were going on a field trip to Busch Gardens. A few of my friends and I made copies of one of our 11th grade friend's field trip permission slip. I gave it to my mom and told her that they didn't have enough juniors going so they were inviting the 10th grade Bio classes. We all went to Islands of Adventure that day instead. Would have been awesome, except my mom's best friend's daughter did go on the ACTUAL Busch Gardens field trip and my mom asked her friend to pick me up with her daughter when the bus dropped us all off. I got a furious phone call from my mom when I wasn't on that bus.
Besides the Tom Hanks incident and getting busted writing on the bathroom wall in fifth grade I never really got into trouble. I partied a lot when I first moved to FL but I had always made plans to stay the night out so I never got busted.
Tom Hanks incident....?
I stayed the night at a guy's house. (I had a lot of "boyfriends" at 18ish...including DH.) He lived about 45 min away in Ft. Walton. I had fallen asleep during a movie at his house, and just couldn't drive home. We didn't mess around, nothing like that. I was just tired. I actually tried to call home, but no one answered. My parents were soooo upset with me. I got a "talking to"....I don't remember if I was punished.
The first road trip I went on with (now) DH....I think I was 19 and still living at home. My mom flipped out! She didn't think it was appropriate for me to go away with a guy. I argued that if she was afraid we were going to have sex, we didn't need to go out of town to do that. Though obviously true, it wasn't a very nice thing to say. She was screaming at me. I did end up going.....and went on several after that. (We are road tripping fools!) And then moved in with him a couple years later. She didn't like any of it.
I was a totally a good girl up until 7th grade. My friends thought it was funny to dare me to say curse words. Then I met a boy.... I never got caught but I had several makeout sessions in the school auditorium. At 14 and in 9th grade I fell head over heels for a Senior (who was a total d-bag, no surprise there). The worst punishment I ever got was b/c I snuck away from the football game with him and had my first sexual encounter. My mom found out about it b/c I wrote about it in my journal (real smart, right?). I was spanked with a belt for the first and only time and I was grounded for 6 months. My mom made me take everything off my walls, shelves, no tv, radio, books, nothing. I even had to bag up my clothes- all I had was school uniforms. I served every day of that 6 months.
So I got smarter! At 16 I started the "I'm staying with this friend and that friend was staying with me" routine. Our parents had to know but we never got in trouble. I would come home at 7 in the morning stinking of beer and puking. I never got in trouble. I think my mom just let me be b/c I was a great student.
How is it that my BABY is going to be 3?
BFP-2/25/11; 8 Wk U/S-3/25/11-No HB, measured 6.5 wks; D&C
I stole a dumb bouncy ball from Kmart when I was 7or 8. My dad made me go in the store and announce it at the customer service desk.
In 9th grade, a friend came home with my after school. I knew my parents had plans that night, so we waited for my parents to leave and called a cab. We wanted to go to Publix, dumb. Thirty minutes later, cab pulls in the drive way and my mom pulled in behind the cab! I got a big talking to and she took my friend home. Lost all trust from my parents and it sucked.
I was 17 when I graduated, so my parents took away my curfew after graduation. Sometime between graduation and my birthday (a month apart), I didn't come home one night. I stayed at a guys house. I never went to sleep that night. At 630, I thought I would head home. My mom went into work late that day. I think it was to wait for me to come home, ugh. I feel sick, to this day when I think about it.
I did a bunch of ridiculous crap with DH, but not willing to share that on the internet.
