Earliest memory. Huh. I have often thought about this (before today) and I think my earliest memory is getting stitches in my chin when I was about 3. Unlike my memory skills today, I do not remember the date of this event :) My dad used to play on a church softball team, and my friend Josh and I were playing tag at one of the games. I somehow fell down during the game, and rather than putting my hands on the ground to stop myself I used my chin instead. That won me a trip to the ER for stitches in my chin. I guess I would not sit still while they were trying to put the stitches in, so they put me on this board and velcroed me onto the board. (Kind of like a straight-jacket, but not a jacket.) I do not remember the actual fall at the game, nor do I remember not sitting still for the doctors. But, I do remember being strapped to the board and not being able to move. Traumatic first memory, but I have heard that your first memory generally is a traumatic one.
What was your very first job?
Submitted by Laurel.
My first real job, other than babysitting, was working at MasterPlan Sports and Fitness, aka Hitting for Excellence. I started there in August 1998 when I started college, and worked there through May 2002 when I completed college. My title was Office Manager, but I also home-schooled Heather and Tressa when the office was slow. The Hudgens' treated me well, and I definitely miss them.
What was the highlight of your summer?
This past summer could be considered "uneventful" compared to summer of '05 when I traveled to Alaska and then one week later left for a three-week backpacking adventure through western Europe. However, I was able to travel in '06, and I would say the highlight of one of my NYC trips was walking Manhattan in a day. We started in the Bronx at 225th Street and finished 5 hours later at Battery Park.
