Fond childhood memories

Hahaha kinda along the same lines as this. I had a big wheel myself and I had my doll in the back, well I would ride my bike around the driveway about as much as I drive my car now. A lot ..One day I messed up I guess and when it was time to put the bike up and go inside, I grabbed my doll and the end of her foot was ground off from the pavement. It was just a hollow leg and I was mortified. I still have the doll and the big wheel at my moms house lol .

Oh yeah one of those stories that is always brought up when my family gets together is how in kindergarten on picture day my mom put me in some cute outfit fit for the weather. I remind you it was probably 80* outside and I was mad that I couldn't wear my cute little black velvet skirt and blouse outfit thingy lol. Well I don't really remember planning this or doing it but I guess I put the black velvet outfit in my backpack, changed clothes at school for the pics, changed back, and then stashed the clothes as I got home. When my mom got my kindergarten pics and I was wearing the black velvet outfit she was like WTF and I cant live it down lol

In the eight grade I was into being a little skater punk kid.

I didnt want to take a picture so I messed up my hair, I look back now and think to myself that look OWNED!

I never got a year book and my folks didnt buy the pictures so I found this girl I went to school with and she scanned it in and sent it to me. Thats why it says "Too Cool" on it. I'm not that full of myself.

My first day of kindergarten we were given out our "cubby holes" and i i could not find my name on any of them. I was so upset, i was crying so much they had to have my mom come in to calm me down. That was the day my mom told me my real name was Theresa, not Teri, and thats why i couldnt find my cubby.

::snickers to self:: that's pretty damned funny
 
Like most kids I went through a bad phase in elementary school. I guess I was testing the waters so to speak to see how much I could get away with. I got caught throwing rocks a cars one day and when my mom confronted me about it I looked her dead in the eye with a straight serious face and told her without missing a beat; "Mom...I was trying to throw the rocks under the cars". I was grounded for life, no s***. but I eventually got parolled a few monthes later.

My little sister asked my mom one time why she couldn't get away with all the things I used to get away with and my mom told her that it was because she couldn't lie as good as her brother.
 
Too many stories of my traumatic child hood... like that time with the Mr. Turtle Pool:

Brother, sister and I are sitting atop of a big tree in the back yard with bathing suits on. Mr. Turtle Pool is sitting below us, filled with water. All of us wanted to DIVE in, since non of us had any depth perception at the time, and not just JUMP in. I was the youngest, probably about 7. As the youngest, it was my "honor" to jump first... and I thought, oh boy, I get to go first for once! So guinea pig me, dives in head first. A couple of moments and brain lapses later, I've got a really bad headache and there's a big dent in the turtle pool. Sister and brother were no where to be found. But my whailing sure brought my mom outside, which is probably why they dissappeared so quickly.

Another bright idea by brother and sister; Radio Red Flyer and a bike hauling ass:

Brother decides that he wants to borrow my red wagon. I say no. He says I can ride in it if I can hang on while he tows it with his bike. (that should've been a clue). I get in and hang on for dear life. My mom is inside the house when she hears a scraping noise outside in the street. There's my brother, laughing his ass off, hauling ass in front of the house on his Murray, and there's me... hanging on to the side of the red wagon that of course flipped over, sparks and pig-tails flying everywhere. I was bruised for a good few weeks. Sad thing is... I would've probably done it all again. lol

If there was Nintendo back then, I'm sure my siblings would've had better things to do then to find new ways to try to kill me off.
 
so many retarded things so little time to list em all...

6 years old i had a fishtank on its stand and i decided my little short self wanted to pet the fish.. so i climbed up on this stand and put my hand in. i guess the center of gravity was just a tad high after that and the next thing i know im bleeding and wet and glass is everywhere. resulted in stiches

So THATS what happened.
 
Ooh, I just remembered a good one. I'm gonna say I was 5 maybe. So one day while using the bathroom, I come across a small nifty looking box on the counter. Bright yellow on the sides and bottom, with a clear top, and shiny stuff on the inside. It's obvious from looking at it that it does something cool, maybe a transformer of some kind. Some I fiddle with it a bit and manage to dispense one shiny. Well, the box turned out to be a razor dispenser, and before I knew it I had given myself a decent cut or two on my fingers. It didn't hurt, but it was obvious from the dripping blood that something was wrong. So I start slowly wandering around the house calling my mom, dripping blood on the carpet in every room until finally I find her and she bandages me up. She was not too happy about the carpet.

Man, if I were a guy, I think my balls would've just hid from me after reading that. I HATE razors. I hate seeing them on TV or reading about them. Makes me cringe and run to my 'happy place'. lol
 
i got a good one:

I was in 6th grade...and the bus had dropped me and my friends off a few minutes early, so we all go inside the uncrowded cafeteria to eat breakfast/sit and talk. So were talkin and my friend robbie pulls out a package of christmas oreos (i remember it was the christmas kind because the frosting was red...okay maybe valentines?) Anyway, somehow we start arguing over who is going to launch one across the cafeteria (the cafeteria was somewhat narrow, but quite on the long side with a slanted up type ceiling).

So i get the balls (lack of intelligence) to launch one...so the 3 of my buddies form a human shield in front of me by sitting on the table and me sitting in a chair behind them. So i take the cookie and launch it around them, watching it curve upward and in front of my "wall", and out of sight.

I think that it just smashed into the ground because the cafeteria wasn't that crowded, but all of a sudden my wall of buddies bust out in a "OOOHHHHH!" each bringing their hands to their mouths....so i take a peek around them to see this kid rubbing the top of his noggin,....PRICELESS! We couldn't stop laughing!...

to this day it still brings a chuckle

hehe, my friends and I would try to see what kind of objects(twinkies, debbie cakes, pencils, etc.) could get to stick to the junior high band practice room ceiling. The ceiling was like something like 20-25ft high, so we'd just throw crap straight up as hard as possible whenever the conductor wasn't around.

We also flicked a carrot slice onto the face of some random girl passing by in the cafeteria.
That was in high school. Very mature we were.(poke)
