Back in the day meme

Meme from denisia:

1. When was the last time you went to a playground and swung on the swings?

I don't know...a year or so maybe. I love swinging on swings. It's so much fun. But I get weird looks from the moms in the park when I try to do it, and my free time is at a premium so it's a pretty rare day when I'm actually in a park in the first place.

2. What is the first TV show you remember watching as a child?

The usual Sesame Street and Mr Rogers. I remember watching the Muppets at my Grandma and Great Aunt's house when they babysat us and being scared of the muppets, especially Beaker.

3. What's your favorite board game?

Oooh, I love board games! I have a lot of favorites, but if I had to pick just a few I'd say Therapy, Taboo, ImagineIff, and the Star Trek/LOTR boardgame that my sister and I created.

4. How old were you when you started school?

You mean kindergarten? I dunno...4? Can't remember. I do remember not liking it and wanting to be back at home.

5. If you could have given any one piece of advice to yourself when you were a child, what would it be?

Stop worrying about the minor stuff. I wasted so much time worrying about things that didn't end up impacting my life at all.

the muppets scared you? awwwww. did they always scare you, or just the first time (or first few times)?

I know that I always found Beaker to be scary. Something about the opening Muppet sequence always made me feel a bit weird and a bit scared too...maybe it was because I only remember watching the show when we were being babysat by Grandma and Aunty, and I missed my mom!
