When we were young . . .

I stole this idea from luvishere. I'm sure she won't mind.

Things that were good when we were young ...

  • falling asleep in the car on long drives
  • wrestling with my uncle
  • eating a Big Mac, a Quarter Pounder with cheese, a large fries, a large Coke, and an apple pie, and not worrying about the calories
  • playing Space Invaders on the TRS-80
  • wearing the same kind of cowboy boots my dad did
  • showing off my muscles to anyone who'd look
  • beachwalking with my sister on vacation
  • swimming from one end of the pool to the other, touching the bottom, without surfacing
  • sitting on my mother's lap with a book
  • catching crawdads in the creek
  • looking through Gun Digest and deciding what guns I'd buy when I grew up and had some money
  • looking through Knives Illustrated and deciding what knives I'd buy when I grew up and had some money
  • looking stuff up with my father whenever I asked a question he didn't know the answer to
  • browsing through the World Book Encyclopedia until the wee hours of the morning
  • helping my dog take a nap
  • camping with my family
  • waiting for HBO movies to come on, back when HBO aired only during the evenings and weekends
  • getting our first VCR and recording all kinds of stuff we didn't care about, just because it was fun
