First Kiss

I found this picture of Britton and I. This was at the Valentines Day dance the day after I got my first kiss.
Please take note of the Pop Top necklace, the many, many, many rasta bracelets, and tutu. Oh, and that eyeliner. It's so funny, when I try to put eyeliner on now, my eyes cry all day. But back in the day I could pile that stuff on like nobodies business!

Back to my first kiss. It was awful. Disgusting. I can't even remember the guys name. I remember what I was wearing, my black 3/4 sleeve v neck and a green tank top. I remember it was almost Valentines Day and I'd been 16 for five months. I was in the middle of an unrequited love horror that would never happen, and so when one of the older girls from church gave a guy my number saying we'd be great together, I didn't think much about it. I was flattered to have a guy texting me! When he asked if I wanted to meet at the mall, I went for it. I was under the impression that we were meeting with said older girl as well, but it was just us. 

We walked around for a bit, and then he said he wanted to play hide and seek at Walmart, so could I drive him there? Yeah, on my first kinda sorta date I had to drive. So we went to the Walmart and played hide and seek. Honestly, I think hide and seek is super lame and I thought it then too. But, this was a boy who was talking to me! After Walmart he asked me to drive him to a park because it was super cool. In all honestly I was freezing cold and thought that hey, this might be romantic, with someone else.

Then he asked me to drive him home. So I did, but I texted Kelsey and told her where I was and blah blah blah so if I died she could find me. Looking back this was very idiotic to do! But I'm still here! So, I drove him home. He said that since he'd seen my car, I should see his car. So he went into his house and got his keys and then showed me his car. I sat there, wanting to go home. He said something about wanting to take me to REd Robins sometimes, which I was ok with because I love that place. Then, it was awkward and quiet. So then he slowly leaned over to kiss me. I saw it coming and could have stopped it if I wanted to. I didn't though. I was faced with this life milestone and I wanted to know what it was like! So I closed my eyes and sat there. He just touched me with his lips for a second. I'm sure he figured out I had no idea what I was doing so he pulled away, gave me a hug, and I never heard from him again. 

I drove home, feeling really weird and gross. I'd had my first kiss! And it was gross. I didn't feel anything. I called Kelsey and told her what happened. Then I went and wrote in my journal what happened because apparently you're supposed to document first kisses. I don't have that journal anymore which I'm really sad about because I want to know what I said! So, I'm putting down what I remember here for one day when I can tell my daughter about my first kiss.

  1. This is so funny! My first kiss was too my hubby, but it was terrible. It was a goodbye kiss, before I got on the bus to go home, and it was the most awkward thing ever with my sister on the bus and the kids watching. :p I know exactly how you feel. :)

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
