Firsts

[MsSassyBaskets]

Love at first sight:
No, but certainly interest/attraction.

First alcoholic beverage:
Either Bud Ice, consumed atop a parking garage with some older boys, or Jack Daniels stolen from my parents liquor cabinet. Not sure which came first.

First car:
1980 Mercedes 300 Diesel.

First job:
Lots of babysitting. First real job was at a department store.

First kiss:
Not actually sure? I think I kissed someone in truth or dare first. Then made out with my first high school boyfriend on a golf course, in the rain.

First pet:
A kitten from the litter next door. We just called him Kitty.

When did you first fall in love:
I'm not sure if I see this question as cut-and-dried as most people do. The line between crush, caring and love can be a bit blurry. I'll say college boyfriend, freshman year.

When did you first get your drivers license:
17

When did you first move out of your parents house:
18, for college. I would have burned the whole town down and never looked back if I could've.

Sunny D and Kahlua? Dear God.

Yeah, not very discreet when my parents heard me vomiting in the bathroom as soon as I got home. Somehow we decided that would be our best option based on what my friend's parents had in their cabinets. 15-year-old geniuses...

• Have you ever experienced love at first sight? No, but with DH there was definitely something there that was more like "intense interest and attraction at first sight" when I first met him, though we wouldn't date until a few years later. He was a close friend of my then-boyfriend and I was definitely intrigued when I met him.

Have you ever experienced love at first sight? No

What was your first alcoholic beverage? Beer I think.

What was your first car? 1979 VW Super Beetle. I loved that car. DH hated it and called it a death trap. We sold it when we moved for med school.

What was your first job? I started babysitting I think around 12 and that is what I did through the first couple years of college. The summer after high school graduation my dad lost his job and I was worried about money so I nannied during the day and worked at a Hoggie Yogi in the evenings. DH and I had just started dating so we usually got together after I got off work. It was a busy, tiring summer that I look back on very fondly.

What was your first kiss like? It was DH on one of those late nights at my parents house while we were watching a movie.

What was your first pet? I had a rat that my parents gave to a friend, a bunny my dad took to the desert, a dog that got sent away. I'm not sure what happened to the turtles. Dh says this is why I don't like the idea of pets now.

When did you first fall in love? Not sure exactly when but dh is the one.

When did you first get your driver’s license? 16 I think.

When did you first move out of your parents’ house? 23. I lived with my parents through college until I got married. Other than a stint in the dorms so did DH. We got our first apartment and when we got married a semester before I graduated. My parents were upset with us getting married before I finished school. I was so ready to get out of their house but financially it was awesome and I am grateful I had the option.
