thefridayfive:
1) What was the bravest thing you have every done?
Opening up to my parents about how I felt about an ex-boyfriend of mine. Could rank up there as one of the stupidest too. I was young, I was heady with infatuation, and I thought my folks were acting like pricks about the whole thing. Resulted in the first screaming match I'd EVER had with them, and it startled all three of us. It was brave of me because we're quite closed off to ourselves and each other, so there was that. Has never happened again, in any context.
2) Describe the meanest thing you have ever done.
I do lots of small cruel things, and feel I've yet to do anything that can justify the "meanest" title. Time spent mocking the classmates I had who were more outside the norm than I was in elementary comes to mind, but that's about it.
3) Tell us about the nicest thing anything anyone has done for you.
Quincy got the school orchestra to sing Happy Birthday to me back in HS. I think the memory of the event colors it in my mind. It was a beautiful late spring day and we were outside. I was feeling a little bummed because even back then I kept feeling birthdays were death knells. He smiled at me as they started singing. I didn't even recall telling him it was my birthday. I feel as though after class we headed over to our spot by the East River and played our recorders for a little bit. Most of the memories I have of him are of music and light and happiness. He was a unique soul.
4) What was the most insane thing you have ever witnessed or done?
Besides the electoral process in our country? Hmm. I'm a fairly safe person when it comes to my insane acts. The people diving around during the Cirque Du Soleil show "O" were pretty freakin' out of their gourd, in my opinion. Beautiful and talented, but apeshit to be doing what they were doing.
5) Describe the most "out of character" thing you secretly want to do.
Get all dolled up in Mac and heels and hit the town.
