At age 2, upon realizing that I could NOT drink apple juice out of my red-enameled tin cup while lying flat on my back on the living room floor.  It dripped down both sides of my neck to the floor and I sputtered and gasped...and everyone in the room thought it was very cute and funny and laughed a lot.  I would have shot poison darts from my eyes at them for doing so, I was so ambarrased...and so I was angry.
2. At age 3, at a birthday party for my favorite aunt, I broke a bottle of very expensive perfume given to her as a gift.  I was truely mortified, even though I recall that my aunt was very gracious about it.
3. Something so bad I think I've forgotten it.  I can tell it's there, but can't even begin to formulate the memory. Probably for the best...

Okay...that's all yer gettin' for now!

What a fun thread --

Three Guilty Pleasures:
1) Japanese monster movies - the silly plots, low budget monsters, cheesy special effects, terrible acting and even more terrible dubbing, just too much fun to not enjoy.
2) True Blood - especially Stephen Moyer as Bill Compton, whooo hooo!
3) Mystery books - yep, my favorite genre books, call me intellectually lazy....
4) (oops, looks like I can't count), anything made with whipped cream, including eating it straight out of the bowl, I can feel my arteries hardening as I type 

[Charcoal Sniper P.]

1) anything blue (there is one exception, I will eat the red white and blue Popsicles, sometimes called rocket pops and sometimes called firecrackers)

Hungry.

Icy Russia, your embarrassing stories gave me a really good laugh!

Since I have three sons, that seems the most logical place for me to jump in this threesome discussion:

Things I love about each son:

1) The oldest - age 7 - he's a handful, very strong-willed, my-way-or-the-highway type of kid. But when he's around his younger cousins, he's so protective and nurturing.

2) The middle - age 5 - he's got such a big heart, to go with his big eyes.

3) The youngest - age 3 - he's full of joy and up for anything.
