‘Wondered if the ice was thick enough to cross the river. It wasn’t. I’ll tell you, being on the wrong side of the ice can really motivate you to move fast. Luckily, not a big river, was able to get close to the bank and break back through there.’

‘In college, I thought I could ‘eyeball’ how much vodka to put in a mixed drink. Turns out, I’m REALLY bad at measuring. The hangover taught me humility.’

‘Challenged a friend to play Gladiators on the monkey bars at school when I was 10, the one where you hang from the bars and wrap your legs around the other person to pull them off. Well, I took a foot to the crotch and needed ‘inside’ stitches (I’m female). I still think I could’ve taken you, Ashley, you dirty fighter!’

‘Ten years old, just moved to Minnesota from a climate that never saw ice and snow. Was waiting for my school bus one morning and thought the bus sign looked so cute and fuzzy with ice. Went to lick it, had to tear a good portion of the skin off my tongue to get it off. Then had a weird lisp all day at school.’

‘Thought I was smart by taking a shortcut through an alley to avoid traffic. My tiny Honda got stuck between two buildings because I misjudged the width. Had to call my ex who’s a tow truck driver. He still brings it up at family gatherings three years later.’

‘Me, age 7 and playing around with a sharp pencil at the dinner table: ‘I wonder if this is sharp enough to puncture skin?’ It was. My mom found me with the pencil just kind of…dangling out of my palm.’

‘This thread reminds me of a funny story of my brother’s.

So when we were kids, our step father was really strict and to be honest, a bit of a jerk. He had my brother digging post holes all day when he was about 10 or 12, and my brother’s hands began to blister and bleed. My brother asked my stepfather for a pair of gloves to protect his hands and my step-dad derided and ridiculed him. “Oh what? You want a pair of bitch mittens?”

Fast forward several years and my brother is a grown man and a foreman for a construction crew. As a favor to my stepfather, my brother gets him a job on his crew. One day, they were digging holes or something and my stepfather’s hands began to blister and bleed. My step-dad asked my brother for a pair of gloves to protect his hands. “Oh what?”, my brother replied. “You want a pair of bitch mittens?”

He waited over 15 years for that moment.’
