My confessions might shock you. Then again, maybe not.
• I didn’t read the Harry Potter books, and worse, I didn’t watch all the movies.
• I don’t get Shakespeare at all, and believe me, I’ve tried.
• I don’t like U2 or Bono and never have.
• I swear like a man and am proud of it.
• I’ve never had a so-called recurring acid trip and my kids are not deformed (physically anyway)
• I once threatened to turn one of my children over to the state. Hey, it happens.
• I had a home birth and literally howled like an animal while pushing.
• I have shoplifted. But it was a really long time ago and the statute of limitations has expired.
• I pointed a squirt gun at a National Guardsman during a demonstration back in the sixties. I was promptly arrested and charged with disturbing the peace. Guess they didn’t think it was so funny.
• I have absolutely no respect for authority, which has gotten me in trouble numerous times in my life (see above).
• I voted for Ronald Reagan. But only the first time.
• I watch General Hospital. One time my husband said, “I can’t believe you, of all people, watch a soap opera!” Whatever that means.
• I have skinny-dipped a few times.
• I used to pen such offensive “tell it like it is” emails that people called them “zingers.”
• I’m not afraid of dying, but I am afraid of living.

I love this! I think my own confessions would probably run along similar lines, although there was a time when I was fourteen when I was madly in live with Bono! Oh, embarrassment!
Thanks. I did this for fun and also because I kind of knew others would have similar “confessions.”
Susan: ” I voted for Ronald Reagan.” Now that Tubularsock is just plain shocked about ……. the rest of your confession seemed normal. You’d may want to attempt a recurring acid trip to straighten that Reagan thing out.
The nice thing about dying as opposed to living is that you don’t need to pack as much for the trip!
Yeah, that Reagan thing still haunts me. What was I thinking? Even acid wouldn’t take that memory away….Yuk!
I bet many have told you to give Harry Potter a chance… so me repeating it would probably annoy you. Haha! Anyway, last point is interesting 🙂
I watched the first movie, but that’s as far as I got. They’re on my bucket list, though, which is pretty darn lengthy!
A great list, Susan! SD
Thanks. It was fun to write.
We have quite a few of the same confessions! I bet it felt great to air them
I had been working on this list for a while. It’s probably not everything, just what’s fit to publish!
Voted for Reagan the first time also. We can both be proud that we were only fooled once. I also share some of your other “mistakes”. They are part of life.
Yeah, that Ronald Reagan thing…..I find we humans are much more alike than we are different, and I like that just fine.
