I have always said I am an open book and very honest. I have a feeling some people will be reading this and shaking their heads but we all make mistakes and by the way it does not say what age I might have done some of this. If you have a question about any of the 200 things here and want to know more make a comment for I will have no problem answering you. It was fun, I enjoyed doing this and it took me down many different paths that I have traveled in my life. After all I have said I am a little Sweet n Sassy and Life is Simply Good today right here in my part of the woods at Always Victoria as the season change. How are things with you?
Yes I am exhausted and I have learned a very important lesson here tonight you check and see if you are doing things correct as you go and do not wait until you have completed an entire post. I have a code stuck in here somewhere that does not belong so it has everything in bold no I am not THAT bad but on the other hand maybe I am. I’ll work on this another time and let you know when you can return to view but in the meantime if you want to ask me about any of those 200 questions go ahead.

I’d like to hear about the $$ you won on a game show. Back in college, three friends of mine and I tried to get on Supermarket Sweep…two of us made it…I wasn’t one of them.
October 13th, 2004 at 10:22 pm
Wow!You’ve done alot!
October 13th, 2004 at 10:29 pm

October 14th, 2004 at 7:24 am
I’m not surprised you’ve done all those things, as you live life to the fullest. I am curious about the $ on the game show and the arrest!
Have a great day, my dear friend, and I hope you can get some much deserved rest! *HUGS*
October 14th, 2004 at 9:48 am
Wow! Some of the things in bold are BOLD!
I think you have gotten our curiousity up in some of these areas.
Also, it has made me go back and take inventory on some things and you are right — our choices have made us what we are today.
Thanks for sharing.
October 14th, 2004 at 12:06 pm
They are ALL BOLD! You mean to say you did all 200? or is it a coding error?
October 14th, 2004 at 2:47 pm
Wow! Way to grab life by the balls, girl. I take my hat off to you.
October 14th, 2004 at 3:09 pm

Happy Friday, Vickie! Just dropping in to pass along some hugs and smiles….
October 15th, 2004 at 8:52 pm
Let me go all Shirley McLain on you, and say ” well, if I haven’t, one of my many other lives has.” I used to think my life was so boring that I made things up. Later on, I looked again and realized I made things up so I would look normal, and god knows, I’m anything but normal. The value of the list is not to give anyone points for how many did we get, but it’s an opportunity for us to examine how many of our adventures have we pursued whether by accident or design. I enjoyed this post as it evolved all day. Cheers, sugah. Keep up the good work.
October 16th, 2004 at 7:50 pm
I got it on my site
October 16th, 2004 at 11:22 pm
Now that is one Hella cool list.
October 18th, 2004 at 11:09 am
Wow, Sweet N Sassy! You are my hero!
I never met anybody who has done everything you did, but I did do some of the stuff you have listed like hug a tree when I was trying to become one with nature, but I stopped because I became one with a couple of eggs to my head!
What master debate did you do in public? I hope it’s ok that I corrected your spelling.
I hope you had a nice weekend, Sweet N Sassy!
October 18th, 2004 at 2:39 pm
I find it very hard to believe that you photocopied your butt. I’d like to hear more about that.
October 18th, 2004 at 10:40 pm
I stopped by the end of the Comments again because they’ve been fun. I noticed on my own that you had changed a baby’s diaper in a hot air baloon and choked. Then I noticed someone mentioning your photocopying your butt and decided that I couldn’t wait to get to work tomorrow so I could check off one more of the list.
October 19th, 2004 at 10:49 am
What did you do with the copyof your butt, Sweet N Sassy? Sell it?
I hope you come back soon!
October 26th, 2004 at 3:49 am
*snicker* When you fix the coding problem, I’d be interested in reading your list. I keep thinking about doing this one, myself.
