Paula is bored...
We've had a huge dumping of snow, followed now by freezing rain. It's a big mess out there and the roads are shit!
I had to put two new tires on my van on Thursday because I got a flat in the whitewall of my rear tire. The other one was getting pretty bad too so I had them replace the front tires and move the ones that were there to the back. Then on Saturday night, the alternator went in Terri's van. So...$600 in two days right before Christmas. GRRRR!
I've been stuck home today (Terri has my van) so I made homemade potato soup and I put in cubed ham and corn leftover from last night's dinner. Smells yummy. I'll make some cheesy biscuits to go with it later. I might make some lemon loaf too. I guess when I'm bored I cook and putter around on LJ.
How old was I when I...
1. Fell in love -- Various crushes, but actually love I was 17.
2. Got a Myspace account -- Never had one, never will; but I did finally succumb to facebook a few months ago.
3. Got drunk -- Not sure on this one. Probably about 15 or 16.
4. Smoked weed -- again, probably about 15.
5. Got french kissed -- 15. It sucked big time. I like it much better now *grins*
6. Went to the hospital for surgery -- I had minor surgery in an office when I was 16. First surgery in a hospital would be when I got my ovary removed when I was 24.
7. Got your heart broken badly -- I was heart broken many times as a teen.
8. Lost a pet -- I was 16 when my lab Susie died. She'd been around as long as I could remember.
9. Got arrested -- Never.
10. Smoked a cigarette -- I was about 13 when I first smoked a cigarette but I didn't actually start smoking regularly until I was 16.
11. Broken a bone -- 17. I broke my thumb in a car accident.
12. Went to a concert -- 13. I saw Loverboy at the Calgary Corral.
13. Got your own cell phone -- I think I was 27.
14. Got a speeding ticket -- I was about 25 maybe.
15. Run away -- We (me, my sister, and a couple of friends) ran away when I was 13 because we got caught skipping school and knew our parents would be furious. We were picked up after a few hours. We had our bikes, and candy. We were all set...lol.
16. Snuck out of the house -- I think about 15 or 16. Didn't do it often. My parents worked late nights so we didn't need to sneak out. As long as we were home before they were we were good.
17. Pierced other than your ears -- Never.
18. Got a tattoo -- I was 30. I've had 3 more since the first one.
19. Bought porn -- In my 20's.
22. Totaled a car -- Until my accident 3 years ago I had never totalled a car. I had been in a few minor accidents but nothing that would total a car.
23. Moved out of your parents' house -- 17 and never went back.
25. How old are you now? -- 39.
26. Had a kid -- 21
27. Got married -- First time, 19. Second time, 36.
