What were you doing 10 years ago?

10 years ago i was on a crazy roadtrip with these uber crazy Mormon's. The idea was: We were heading down to California to meet with some hollywoods about this dudes screenplay about vampires (trash, btw) and i was there to be the Nanny. The trip itself was cool cuz it was a free ride to Sunny Cali, but i was not expecting to be sleeping in the car on the side of the Nevada highways, being totally immersed to the point of uncomfyness in Mormon practices such as "The Laying on of Hands" and blessings with the Holy Spirit etc., and group prayer... it was odd and so very very creepy. This was also about the time, while i was travelling the american roadways, that my then on-again-off-again boyfriend Dickface started spreading rumours to all my friends that i had faked a pregnancy to get him to take me back - which was TOTALLY UNTRUE, and he was systematically destroying all my friendships while i wasn't there to defend myself. Luckily, i have a very awesome friend in Batman who knew me better than that and stood up for me and saved my life that summer. Seriously. there was an incident. and he saved me. and i'll always always love Batman because of that summer. Thank you Batman. This was also the summer i started having prophetic dreams about school and Dickface and all sorts of other weirdness, which was really cool - but kind scary... of course, Mr. Mormon was all like: "You're having Visions from God" even then i knew he was a whack job, but seriously, my dreams came true in their own way. Weird.

What were you doing 1 year ago?

One year ago, i was living in Cowtown with B-rad. my bro had just moved out of the house and we were enjoying being true newlyweds, even though we'd been married almost 2 years at that point. There were a lot of Thursday night Cooking classes with my friend Lysol. Her hubby had gone to Aussieland to visit his family, so we decided to learn how to cook. We did a freakin good job of it too. Many of the recipes we learned have found their way into the regular rotation. Also, this was the summer i discovered Sleeman's Original Beer and spent a lot of time drinking, and growing my little beer belly.
