Friday Five

Friday Five
Always the last to jump on the bandwagon, that's me. But, hey, I've been reading other people's Friday Fives for weeks now and I was feeling kind of left out. I know, I know, it's not even Friday, but better late than never, eh?
1. What was your first job?
I used to work the summers while I was in college as a band camp counselor in Colorado Springs. My first "real" job was delivering pizzas for Blackjack when I got out of college. It was supposed to be temporary until I found a teaching position. Sadly, eleven years later I'm still working for the same company. (I have had other jobs in the meantime, though. I'm not that much of a loser! )
2. How old were you when you had your first kiss?
I was sixteen. The guy kissed so hard he made my lips puff up! I didn't have the heart to tell him it hurt so he'd stop. I told everybody I practiced my clarinet too much that weekend. LOL
3. What was your first car? What happened to it?
My first car was a 1973 gold Ford Pinto station wagon. It was like the unofficial band car. I used to cram 8 or 9 people plus instruments in it everyday. I drove it until it fell apart. I miss that car.
4. What was your first concert?
I saw Barry Manilow (with my friend Kelly who was a fanatic) at McNichols Sports Arena in 1983.
5. How do you plan to spend your weekend?
Sadly, working. I'm going to try and get the bird cages cleaned and get the Christmas tree down, though. How's that for fun?
