100 things about me-(in batches of 10, because I've got no blog endurance)

91. My best friend and I dated the same man.
92. My 3-year-old likes to tell me that we're married (and I almost agree with her.)
93. I love double entendres and prodigious words. :)
94. I've eaten a live, fresh-from-the-stream-minnow, on a dare.
95. I eat red twinkies when I'm *really* depressed. (It's like a death wish.)
96. All the stitches I've ever gotten, have been for wounds inflicted by a softball, and have been on my face.
97. I got trophies for being the best at different subjects, throughout highschool.
98. In second grade I peed near a plant because I couldn't hold it any longer, and then blamed the puddle on a leaking plant. (which other people cleaned up)
99. I was a band geek.
100. I have been mooned 3 times in my life that I can recall: twice during gradeschool gymclass, and once while *trying* to eat custard at the fav., local, hotspot in Champaign-Urbana.

My best friend and I also dated the same man. I told her to dump him because he was no good.
Now I'm married to him.

Also, ouch, poor Becky's face!

Hmmm. Are you still best friends? Sz and I hated each other for a bit, and then bonded when the guy moved on to the next victim...um, I mean girl. Then Sz and I became best buds. He had good taste in women...

Scars give character. Uh, right? At least that's what my Mom told me...

It didn't affect our friendship at all. We're weird that way. We did go our separate ways though, but are lately reconnecting. Not quite the same, but still...

Hello, unlurking here as a fellow mother...my 4 yo gets that whole relationship/gender thing mixed too. It can be rather amusing, especially when he's pretending to be a (female) seal and wants my partner to be his mate so he can have pups....

I also had one of those "best friend dating the same man" experiences. She and I were living together when I dumped him, and he took up with her. Made it pretty uncomfortable for a while. They are now married, and that was 13 years ago.

Yeah, kids are prone to letting some good stuff escape their mouths.
During a visit to the local aquarium, Noel commented that the otter "liked playing with his balls". I laughed and laughed. (It was a toy ball.)

Yeah, and the number of guys (and likely, girls) that are willing to jump from a person to their best bud, is amazing. Despite the fact that my best friend is on the short side and is of Korean heritage, while I'm tall and of German descent, we *completely* attract the same boys. I can't count the number of times on one hand that we've had to fend off the other friend's ex....
