Friday, September 02, 2005Memory of a KissMost of the girls that I went to high school with experienced their first kiss well before our sophomore year. At least, that was my perception of the girls I knew. I was an awkward teen, large glasses, little or no makeup, and I didn't really care about style. My hair was halfway down my back and sported a perm, and because I really didn't know what to do with it, I copied my older sisters hair style from the early 90's. It is no wonder that I didn't experience my first kiss until halfway through my Junior year. My sisters, being the wonderful gals that they are, knew that I was a lost cause and therefore, decided to take me under their wing. Over Christmas break, my hair miraculously shrunk into a stylish a-line cut, lost it's curl, and developed a wonderful case of highlights. My parents gave me contacts and a makeup class at a local department store for a Christmas present. When I returned from break, I looked like a different person. I overheard many comments like "who's the new girl?" It would probably come as no surprise that in that first week back, I was finally "asked out", and boom! I had my first boyfriend. Just after Andy* asked me out, he tried to kiss me. It was the typical lean in kiss where you can see it coming from a mile away. Slow motion ensued and I saw his pucker, the lean, and then... the FALL! Yup, I moved and thus he fell flat on his face. Truly I didn't know this boy very well, I just said yes because he was the first to ask me out. I had no idea what to do with kissing, and I was a bit nervous about the whole experience. I have laughed about this memory with my hubby but I have often wondered what poor Andy thought about it. You see it in movies all the time, but it actually happened to me in real life. One for the record books... He really should have gone for the hug and surprise kiss method so I wouldn't have had time to react. *names changed of course :-)
