    I've done so many stupid things ... hmmm ... when I was little, maybe 8, I rode my bike to the town pet store (small town) and bought a hamster that my parents didn't want me to have. They caught me, of course, when I tried to hide it in the dining room. It got out of the box and we had to chase it all over the house, then I had to return it to the pet store and apologize. I went to school with the pet store owners daughter too! I was soooo embarrassed!

    I just remembered one. I was dating this boy in high school and went to his house after school so we could study. About an hour later, his grandmother cane home and offered to make us some sandwiches. (Normal sandwiches - not the ones you all eat! LOL)

    So anyone, after we ate them, I said, "Your grandma's really nice." He replied, "That isn't my grandmother - that's my mom!"

    Soooooooooo embarrassed.

    Question is what haven't I done?

    I got mad at the busdriver in 6th grade and didn't want to sit with the boy I was assigned to sit with and walked home (it was a 5 mile walk) my parents about had a heart attack, because I wasn't on the bus.

    In 9th grade I went to school in the not so good part of town and missed the bus because I was talking to my teacher. I couldn't get ahold of my parents (of course not, why would they answer the phone?) And so I hitchhiked all the way home. (about 30 miles) They had called the cops and reported me as abducted before I could get home, I was in serious trouble....

    Skipped school several times my senior year (yeh I know everyone does this) but I skipped it to go visit my friends at another school and attend class there (yeh I was a crazy kid).

    I will raise your gas station corn dog and call with chewing on old chewing gum found under a greasy diner's table...

    In the 8th grade, I slept repeatedly with one of my teachers and got her pregnant. She got fired, I got grounded and pulled out of school.











    Oh wait, that wasn't me.... Never mind!

    How funky is your monkey
    How loose is your goose
    Come on all you bear fans
    And shake your caboose
    And shake your caboose!

    I grew up on a dairy, and went bare foot in the summers until... I went to college? Anyway, one of my chores was to help clean the milk barn after milking, including shoveling cow manure... Which I walked in bare foot! Didn't bother me a bit back then, but gives me the heebie jeebies now! :sick:

    Also went skinny dipping in the lake... Fun!

    My sisters think it is weird when I eat tomato and cheese sandwiches.... YUMMMMMY :love:

    My mom caught me holding hands with a boy who I didn't like-like and made me write him an apology letter. To this day if we're at a party together we hold hands (once a girlfriend was there, she was downstairs when I ran into him upstairs and we were holding hands when she got there, she hugged me *while I'm holding her boyfriends hand* and said: "You must be Elysa! I read the note, so funny")

    My best friend planned a surprise party for my 18th birthday to get me out of the house (I was grounded for lying to my parents earlier that month) and took me to get my first tattoo. My mom found out about it 3 days later and I was grounded...as in didn't let me stage manage the school play that went up the next week.

    My friends and I used to go skinny dipping (or chunky dunking as I call it) at the camp pool where we worked. It was a church camp and one week we were caught walking back to our cabin by the counselors. I was in *just* my towel. *face palm*

    :smokin: I responded before I saw this bottom part... thought it sounded like BS. :laugh:
  • OMG! I don't think I've EVER told anybody about this. I cannot believe I'm going to post this. Remember -we were kids.

    When we were about 4 years of age, my cousin and I found some laxatives in a cabinet. We thought they were chocolates and that the adults were "hiding" them from us in the medicine cabinet. So, to get back at them, we ate the entire package.

    I remember commenting to my cousin that the chocolates didn't taste wonderful, and that they were hardly worth hiding -stupid adults -but since they are chocolate, let's just eat them anyway. There was only one toilet in the house soooo....we had to share it. Yep. She got one half of the toilet, I got the other. I also remember telling her to stay on her side! Luckily, we were both very tiny kids. Today, she hates when I bring that up.

    Talk about funky monkey -there you have it.

    I paid my little brother to take a crap in a paper bag. I then got him and his friend to drop the bag of poop at the front door of a girl that was mean to me... ring the doorbell... and run...

    LOL!! That's funny.
  • I tried giving a stripper a lap dance. I was trying to be cool about it and I put my hand on the back of the chair and I tried to do some kind of stripper move, next thing I know the chair topples over and I fall on top of the stripper!

    Well. We went from childhood sandwich preferences to crushing strippers. It's all part of life's rich pageant.

    I eloped when I was 19... that worked out well *insert sarcasm in EVERY nook and cranny of that last part*

    skipped school/snuck out of the house like it was my job when I was in highschool

    Went to Austion for UT freshmen orientation, with just my best friend-no parents, when I was 18. Met a hot bartender, got free drinks from said hot bartender, made the wise drunken decision that orientation was NOT on the top of my priorities, didn't go, floated the river instead.

    I own more mardi gras beads when 90% of the population of New Orleans. We all know how I got them.

    Moved across the country on a whim about a week after returning home from above mentioned trip to Austin. Whim... avoiding my mother... it's all the same lol

    smoked weed with Don Henley. That's right. Don Henley.

    Geez I could go on for days. But I'm sure this is more then enough already lol

    When I was in grade school we had to write pen pal letters to another school in the mid-west. My pen pal was kinda nerdy & his letters didn't interest me at all. He kept sending letters even though I didn't reply so finally I wrote him & said I could no longer write him because I was sick & going to die. Next thing I know his parents are sending my mom letters of support. When she found out she gave me the whole how wrong I was speech & made me write back & tell the truth. I asked her if she could just tell them I died & maybe they'll leave us alone. She didn't find it funny. Turns out me telling the truth ended the letters.

    I know its so wrong but I was a kid at the time.

    ROFL!!


    When I was 16, 4 of my friends came over to watch scarey shows and spend the night. We were in my den, which had french doors leading out to the backyard. While everyone was watching the movie, I got up and pretended I was going to the restroom. I was able to sneak out of the side door and get into the backyard. I had already set up an old voice synthesizer behind the couch, which was located right under the window... I had fed the microphone cord thru the window earlier in the day. I began to make quiet grunts and scarey noises (the voice thing was set up to make my voice super low and warped). I got louder and louder. Eventually they looked freaked out enough and had gotten to their feet, ready to bolt.... that I decided that I had better let them know it's just me, besides, my nose was running really badly. I burst through the french doors.... the girls screamed, but I was surprised when they didn't stop right away. One of them fell backward.... apparently close to fainting. They were honestly scared out of their minds, but I was confused... until I raised my hands to say "Hey! It's just me!"... that's when I saw all the blood. My nose was bleeding badly. I had thought it was just runny, so being a teen, I used my hands to wipe my nose and my shirt to wipe my hands. Blood was all over me. LOL.... My nose bled off and on for over an hour after that. I used to have bloody noses often, but that night was the worst one ever..... It was horribly hilarious!

    Skipped school on "Senior Skip Day"... it wasn't allowed, but almost every senior did it. This was the one and only time I had skipped. A few of us walked to a near by 7-Eleven. I bought some nachos and was eating them on the way back to school..... They made me violently ill, but not until I sat down for class. I raised my hand really quick to be excused, but I didn't get up fast enough. LOL
