I remember my dad giving my mom a microwave for Christmas when they first came out. That bad boy was a behemoth. He insisted she bake a cake in it because the salesman said she could. She did... it was rock hard on the corners (square pan) and the driest thing ever invented. Mom was pist... hated getting kitchen gadgets anyway, and this one was definitely not her idea of fun. I think it was the only kitchen gadget she eventually adopted.

I remember trying to get my first kiss in KINDERGARDEN! I was very much a ham back then. Didn't mind attention at all! Anyways we had a playhouse in the classroom and there were 2 Brian's I liked and I kept trying to get them to play with me in hopes of cornering them in the playhouse! LOL! I am so not like that now! You glance my way and I go and fade into the shadows! Ironically my first kiss, which was actually an accidental kiss, was with one of the Brian's! out on the playground in the 3rd grade. I fell on top of him and our lips came together. Hey and I'm calling it a kiss! He moved away that summer and I was heartbroken.

Anyone ready for this? My first kiss was with a girl! We were "practicing." It was at the far side of the track, where we weren't supposed to be, during recess, probably 4th grade. Then, my first kiss with a guy wasn't until high school.
