1. My first Barbie doll

2. I talk to old high school friends every couple years. We really don't have much in common and have drifted apart. I think it's mostly because we were all so busy with careers and raising families.....plus there was a distance factor.

My very best childhood friend got mixed up with the drug crowd after I married and moved away. She's still living that life..... and after trying to help her numerous times....I had to back away. It's been about 7 years now since I've heard of her or from her. Sad...

3. You could offer me a billion dollars and I wouldn't attempt to climb Mt. Everest. I have trouble going to the top of a skyscraper....since I have a fear of heights. :)

I'm fortunate in that none of my friends ended up in the drug scene as far as I know. Of course, I've lost touch with all but one or two of them. Back in the 90's, I ran into the little sister of a guy I'd known in high school. We were both in grad school at the time although I was ten years older than most other students. I think most of them were under the impression that I was from out west or somewhere other than Tennessee. I was talking to this girl and asked her about a guy I remember who had her same last name. She got the strangest look on her face and said, "That's my brother." She was amazed when she learned that I had run around with her brother. He and I exchanged a couple of e-mails, but I ended up losing touch again.
