Blast from the past

--So, I just get a text from my friend --

I love the old memories that fly into your mind and you sit and reminisce when days were so carefree, you were "healthier" than you are now, and you were able to accomplish everything you wanted for that day : )

Anyways: Here is the story!

When I was a teen coordinator for a volunteer program, one of my little teen volunteers brought me in food to try from her culture. It was home-aid "goat meat"... 

...(*Deep Breath*)

you see, I am not big on trying things "out of my norm" and I like to smell things before I eat them

Yes, I like to smell my food : / weird - whatever!

Well, that was a mistake. I thanked you as she is ever so sweet, but told her that I was very full and would try it later & be sure to tell her how it was! 

Immediately after she left, I dialed up my friend who was working in the department next door to come in & right away, "Erin, what is that SMELL?!"

Oh boy! So yeah - we looked at it. Contemplated trying it.

But no. I refused & I guess she did & till' this day I can never live it down.

She still hates me for introducing her to goat meat.

--On a positive note--

...this song is stuck in my head & the words have been rolling through my head

Eight to five, two to one
Lay your money on the sun
until you crash what have you done?
Is there a better bet than love?
What you are is what you breathe
You gotta cry before you sing


Chances chances...
