Tagging

Where would the blogosphere be without tagging to keep people busy? Via Shannon . . .

1. Did you date someone from your school?
Nope. I followed the Shannon dating plan of not dating. Anyone. Period. I'll tell you about the 2 dances that I went to in HS and the circumstances involving my going if you want.

2. What kind of car did you drive?
1987 Chevy Cavalier named "The Skunk" and a 1987 Plymouth Sundance, later named "Pansy: The Car Who Can't".

3. It’s Friday night...where are you?
I think we did the same thing every week. Basketball at Kevin's church, because his mom was the RS Pres and had keys, followed by a quick trip to 7-11 for massive re-hydration, followed by N64 at Mark's house where we played football, or WWF vs NWO or something like that.

4. Were you a party animal?
Does basketball, 7-11 and video games make me a party animal?

5. Were you considered a flirt?
If you caught me in the right mood, I might acknowledge that girls did, in fact, exist. If you kept me up until 2am and fed me tons of sugar, I may have admitted actually liking one. And that is about as far as any of that went.

6. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir?
No, no and no.

7. Were you a nerd?
Of course. Kenny and I just about staged a protest over not being Sterling Scholars.

8. Were you on any varsity teams?
No, varsity is for dummies; I was on Honors. (I hope Suzanne still reads my blog, so maybe, just maybe, someone will get that.) My sole extra-curricular was Academic Decathlon.

9. Did you get suspended/expelled?
Nope.

10. Can you still sing the fight song?
As much as I ever could: "Through all the seasons of the year . . . . . . . . . mumble mumble . . . . . . clap clap . . . . . . clap clap . . . . . . . . . ROLLING HILLS!"

11. Who were your favorite teachers?
Herlin, Merrill, Brinton.

12. Where did you sit during lunch?
Summer months outside near the tennis courts. Winter we spent on the floor in the history hall.

13. What was your school's full name?
Hillcrest High School

14. School mascot?
The school constitution states "the school mascot shall be a "husky" dog." I'm not sure what those quotes are supposed to mean. I'll leave you to judge.

15. Did you go to Homecoming and who with?
No. In my defense, I was only 16 for Homecoming my senior year, so I only went 0/1.

16. If you could go back and do it again, would you?
I think so. Maybe not for three years, but it was a blast. I didn't try, I goofed off all day, no responsibilities!

17. What do you remember most about graduation?
Wondering who on earth all those people in my grade were. I swear I'd never heard of them, nor seen them. Also, it was long.

18. Where did you go senior skip day?
Murray Park to play Frisbee in the rain.

19. Were you in any clubs?
Nope.

20. Have you gained some weight since then?
Since the beginning of high school or the end? I'm up about 15 pounds since HS, but I probably gained 30 during HS.

21. Who was your prom date?
Haven't you gotten it through your thick skull yet that I didn't date?

22. Are you planning on going to your 10 year reunion?
Sure. Not that I expect to be excited to see anyone there, nor do I expect anyone there to be excited to see me. But we'll probably go. If nothing else to get out of the heat for a weekend.
