My brain is slightly fuzzy from cheap wine and the french...ness of tonight. So I'm just gonna do a MeMe. I snagged it from the one and only Katie Geiter. Before I start, I'm sending my love her way, as she starts a new and exciting chapter in her life.
FIRSTS~
First best friend: Uh, my first real best friend was Emily. My first best friend, though, was, um, Cooler from The Pound Puppies.
First real memory of something: Watching Snow White with my family when I was 2 and then getting scared that all the apples in the world were poisoned. I wouldn't eat apples for years after that.

First Pet: Kandy the airedale puppy--my sister and I got her as a Christmas gift when I was four.
First piercing/tattoo: My ears the day I turned 18. I wasn't allowed to pierce them before that because my mom thought that piercings were the devil. So the day I turned legal, I ran to Clare's and pierced them. And got a second hold in my left ear--just to be "edgy."
