torontobride17

1. We met and dated for awhile, then stopped seeing each, then ran into eachother a year later. So I guess a year.2. 5-1/2 years (but we lived together 4-1/2 of those years, so I don't really consider it "dating")3. One week short of a year4. I used to love pigs feet when I was a kid - it's a Hungarian delicacy. I wouldn't touch them now though.

I lied. I just remembered that I once swallowed a live goldfish at a church youth group event.WTH? Why did you do that?  And why am I imagining one of those backwoods crazy churches with screamers and fainters, only instead of a snake pit they have a huge goldfish bowl?

I thought whenever people "swallowed" a live fish, it was fake. My sister got to keep a betta that had been "swallowed" at a high school pep rally. I didn't know those little critters were actually gulped.

ac_in_dc
