Childhood Confessions

I didn't know the difference between Michael Jackson and Michael Jordan.

I was sure a pair of elves named Emily and Eric lived under the house across the street.

I had a special branch in the tree where I wrote science fiction and fantasy stories.

I wanted more than anything to be a kid on Zoom.



I had a crush on a kid in Kindergarten because he drew really good horses.

I would eat Werther's candy and save the wrappers for when I was watching "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" so I could join in on singing "I've Got a Golden Ticket"


I invented a game with my brothers called "Stinky Sock Man"

I had a recurring, terrifying nightmare where my grandmother turned into a rabbit.

I liked to ride my bike around the block while listening to The Hooters cassette on an old, pink Walkman.


I could weave almost anything out of some long grass.  I usually tried to sell my creations.

I was mad when they didn't discover me on the street and ask me to play Hermione.

I was afraid to admit to the kids at school that I liked U2 and Journey, not the Backstreet Boys and N'Sync.

I dumped water on a new watch because I didn't believe my mom when she told me not to get it wet.

My fifth birthday party was Esmeralda themed.
