Truth or Dare/ The First Meme

A couple more truths before I move on... and the dares well, I havent done them yet. We'll see what goes down.

TTD truthed me with this one: t. cas - since you always talking about you cant drink like that.. what's your drink of choice & how many glasses does it take to get you drunk?

I don't remember saying I cant drink like that, I just don't anymore. I had my times back in the day. When I was your age, I was straight alcoholic status. Now, I drink once or twice a month, and I hardly ever get drunk anymore. When I do, I stay in the house. My drinks of choice are Hen and Coke, any type rum, especially Parrot Bay or Malibu. I'm also partial to Amaretto on the rocks and Grand Marnier after dinner.

Rob Mack hit me with this one: Truth for you: You ever remember giving a chick a lame "playa" line, and the shit worked? If so, talk about it briefly.

I can't really think of a time. I usually meet my women through mutual friends or back in the day at work. I don't have to do the playa lines, which is a good thing, cuz I have no game... at all. Once I know a chick, I can spit with the best of them, but on the approach I'm always conscious of coming across like a lame. I even wrote a post trying to get some tips from the ladies about what works. Can I just say that they were no help? LOL. Check it out right here.

The First Meme

1. Who was your first prom date? I didn't go to my prom, but I went to the prom with Shay at her school.
2. Who was your first roommate? Charis. We were mad cool until she moved her girlfriend and her girlfriends son into the crib.
3. What alcoholic beverage did you drink when you got drunk the first time? I didn't get drunk until I was legal. I think we were drinking E and J
4. What was your first job? Saint Joseph's Hospital. I worked in the dietary department pushing carts of food and washing dishes.
5. What was your first car? 1987 VW Fox. It was burgandy with rust spots on the top. I took my student loan check and got it painted Midnight Blue and got a Rashan X airbrushed front license plate with a Tiger on it to represent my school. Couldn't tell me I wasn't the shit.
6. When did you go to your first funeral? My grandfather died in 1984 so I was either 9 or 10. It was a military funeral in Beaufort, SC. I remember feeling proud when they did the 21 gun salute and gave my grandmother the flag.
7. How old were you when you first moved away from your hometown? I moved to ATL when I was 25.
8. Who was your first grade teacher? I wanna say it was Mrs Silverstein but that may have been 2nd grade. I was still in New York at the time.
9. Where did you go on your first ride on an airplane? February 1st, 1986. When I moved from NY to Savannah. We were all supposed to go, but there was some hold up. The rest of my family came down the next week, but I was stubborn and convinced my mom to let me fly down by myself. When I left NY, I had on a bomber jacket and it was snowing. When my grandmother picked me up in Savannah, it was 85 degrees. I remember all the flight attendants were calling me brave for flying by myself. I also got lost in the Charlotte airport for my connecting flight. I was wandering around with my boom box until someone helped me find the right gate.
10. When you snuck out of your house for the first time, who was it with? Woulda been with Shay. I didn't really sneak out that much, cuz there were too many people in my Grandmother's house growing up. I didn't have my own bedroom, I slept in the living room and my Grandmother would always "pretend" to get up and get water or a blanket from the hall closet and see what we were doing.
11. Who was your first Best Friend and are you still friends with them?Gautam in New York. We lost touch when I moved to Savannah, but our moms still keep in touch. We had a true rainbow coalition of friends growing up. Me - Black, Gautum - Indian (from India) Timmy - White, Ira - Jewish, Marsha - Philipino, etc. I came back to NY to visit and everybody had started congregating to their own race by that time. It was pretty sad that the innocence of youth was shattered by race.
12. Where did you live the first time you moved out of your parents house? In a crappy apartment with Charis.
13. Who is the first person you call when you have a bad day? I'm probably already on the phone with Trish. Good day, Bad day, Anyday
14. Who's wedding were you in the first time you were a bridesmaid or a groomsmen? In 97, My moms got married the day before my College graduation. I was so mad at her b/c she stole my moment and got all the gifts from the far off relatives.
15. What is the first thing you do in the morning? Turn off the first alarm and wait for the next 2 to go off.
16. What was the first concert you ever went to? It was either New Edition or the Eric B and Rakim, Public Enemy and The Beastie Boys. I remember the Beasties Boys got arrested for coming out on the stage on a giant penis. I didn't tell my mom about that part and she was furious when she saw the news.
17. First tattoo or piercing? Don't have either one
18. First celebrity crush? Vanessa Williams - Miss America.

OMG My first concert was New Edition! Way back in 1988, I was in thrid grade and already had the makings of a groupie. I begged my mom to take me. BEGGED. But she was a New Edition groupie too (hell she was only 26 when I was 8) and she loved her some Johnny Gill so it didn't take much convincing. LOL!

glad you dont have to spit lines, especially if you have no game. im not much of a drinker either. occasionally i'll try something if it's suggested by a friend, other than that, im pretty much the girl that's into non-alcoholic drinks. what's funny s that people always look at me crazy when i tell them that. as if im no fun or am uptight or something. but then, they spend some time with me or go out with me...and their perceptions change... shyt! do YOU tanqueray? ;-)

I'm cracking up at the first thing you do in the morning. That's actually the first thing I do also, and the 2nd and 3rd and 4th LOL. Suffice it to say, I'm not a morning person.

I don't know WHAT the heck was up with my computer but the last entry of yours I had been able to read of yours, up until today, was the I Wish post. I was like 'What in the world is up with Cas!' I thought you bailed on the blog. Lol I've got some catching up to do. Damn computer! UGH!
