When 10 y/o me started, my Mom alerted her Mom & the Grandrents showed up with a cake...GAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!

1979/1980: same type of trip but 5 kids (me & sis and to-be stepdad’s 3 kids ranging from 12 to 17) that barely knew/hated each other. Sis & I hated stepdad-to-be and his kids hated my Mom. DE-EFFING-LIGHTFUL! We went VA to CA via the southern route then up the west coast to Canada. By the time we were over the…

reminds me of the Easter eggs in the trunk in ‘Steel Magnolias’

Feel/felt the same way! Ex-fiance dumped me twice for his ex gf (ahhh, to be in my late 20’s again...NOT!) When he passed away 2 years ago, I was more upset about her, her daughter & grand-daughter being in the obit than his passing. Kinda messed up because we eventually became civil/friendly over the years (also…

me too! and I am still not sure who he is

I do the same thing! Once, I was taking my Dad to see his brother & did the whole “look, that baby deer is sleeping” and Dad says “Must be a dirt nap”. Miss him everyday!

My 72 y/o Mom was very sheltered growing up, then in a mess of a marriage to my Dad (abusive alcoholic) for 7 years. Back then & in that small, close community, most things were not discussed so she kept everything to herself (a psychiatrist she saw in her 50’s told her that her walls were brick, tall & so…

me too!! lost Dad in 2007 & only learned an Nth of all the shite he did in his almost 80 years

looks very Archie McPhee!

Saw Culture Club at the Wax Museum in DC in 1983. So close I could have thrown my drink on them (17 y/o me never got carded & was mystified that you could drink alcohol at a concert!). Absolutely amazing venue & the band was awesome (before the drugs f*cked everything up!)

Ate an over-easy egg once on a burger because I forgot to ask for it over-hard. Since I've been in a "just try it" mode for the last few years for foods I found gross as a kid, I tried it. IT.WAS.BITTER! Is that normal? I really wanted to like it but I just can't.

I totally lost it while watching the last few minutes of the last episode of The Tudors. Just the right time to let loose all the anxiety and stress of being laid off in 2013 (after 27 yrs), almost losing my Mom in 2014 & dealing with everyone else's shit. But it was all Henry's fault for dying in 1547!

great idea!

I thought I was the only one to do this! A few times forgot the post-shower flush & roomie thought someone was breaking in to take dumps....ooops!

A few days before senior pics, I decided I needed curls and a trim...but ended up with a cut then a tight perm. I was known as 'Hair Bear Bunch' until the following spring.

my sub-cockles are warmed! I listened to this in traffic to tamp down my road rage :)
