I love food. I'll eat pretty much anything except carrots, celery, peanut butter, and squid with tentacles still attached.

I don't remember living through this particular event, but I heard the story from my mom and dad. Apparently, when I was 2 years old, my dad took me to a seafood restaurant when my mom and Kate were still in the hospital after Kate was just born. My dad ordered his meal, and then ordered a side of clams for me. The waiter told him, "You know, we have a children's menu....would you like me to bring her some . . . Read More..

Sometime after my first trip to China.  Maybe a few days later, I immediately had a business trip out to San Diego for training while working at Compuware.

I was living in Ann Arbor at the time and had not been back there for like a month straight.  

So I fly out there and it was such a long flight!  Even though I just had ridden at least 18 hours from China, 5 hours seemed very long to me to travel within my own country.

I get there on a Sunday afternoon and I swear I didnt even get settled into my hotel.  I think I immediately took my rental car out and around the city until I found a good spot to park and start rollerblading.  I was rollerblading all around Mission Bay and the board walk in San Diego and having a really good time enjoying the atmosphere.  I had some people take some photos of me as the sun set.  And I just was really appreciating such a beautiful new city that I have never been to.  I went to a crab shack and had some . . .

Original Memory Inspiration / Question


Her Response:

In 8th grade, I was invited to a birthday party for Hilary Maxwell. The party was at her parents' house and the only people invited were couples. My recollection tells me there were four couples--Hilary Maxwell and Tim Hunter, Stephanie McCurdy and Jamie Scheets, Mona Shipp and that guy she was dating (Matt?), and me and Mark VanWinkle. I had no idea what I was getting into when I agreed to attend the party. I don't remember much about the first part of the party. I think we were all awkwardly sitting around and trying to find something to say. We were probably all holding hands with our little 8th grade couple buddy. The guys were all friends with each other and I think Hilary, Stephanie, and Mona knew each other pretty well. I didn't know any of them well. I probably knew Mark better than I knew the girls and we had probably been couple buddies for two weeks.

Anyway, at some point, Hilary and Tim disappeared. Everyone assumed they went to the barn to do it. I don't know . . . Read More..

From (Growing up Through Elementary School) Original Memory Interview Question

His Response:

I remember a kid named Lenny. He lived off of Hendricks. I went to Burt Elementary School with him in kindergarten only. After kindergarten we moved to Clarkston where I went to Pine Knob Elementary School. I remember seeing Lenny once after I moved when I went to Dan and Dave's house just down the street. I don't remember much about our encounter except his brown fence for some reason. I remember that I met Jim Falk on the first day of First Grade and we have been friends ever since. The funny thing is that Jim kind of reminded me of Lenny.
