It's not even officially summer, but already Spider has noted that several bloggers have the summertime blues. To cure the early summer blues, he's offered up a meme to break the blahs.
Here's how it works: Answer all of the original 20 questions (10 from Spider, 5 from Brad and 5 from me) that I have posted here, and then add five of your own.
Best summer: Maybe the summer of '95 - the first summer out on my own that finished with a road trip to New Orleans for Southern Decadence. That picture was made just before we got in the car to leave. Who were those boys? Oh, and the summer of '05 was pretty damn good too.
Best car I've ever owned: A 1985 Nissan 200SX
Best cruising song: "Where the Streets Have No Name", U2.
Favorite meal: Meatloaf and mashed potatoes
Favorite season: Fall
Proudest accomplishment: Landing the job that I start next week.
Best Christmas gift: Tickle-Me Elmo. No, seriously.
Most embarrassing moment: Taking a spill on the stairs at Backstreet.
Best slow dance song: "At Last," Etta James
Best night: The best night in recent memory is the night when the Gaggle went down to Beale Street.
These are the five that Brad added:
Favorite pet: Baxter, the stray daschund mutt I carried home, only to have to put him to sleep a week later because he was infested with worms.
Favorite crush: Mickey Brown. He sat across from me in high school Spanish class and would pretend to yawn to get me to yawn too. And he was just so damn cute.
Best vacation: The Outer Banks, 2001 and 2002.
Best relationship: Despite all of the heartache and drama, when my last relationship was good, it was great. When it was bad, it was dreadful.
Favorite dessert: Tiramisu. Or apple pie.
My questions
Favorite smell that reminds you of summer : Honeysuckle
Favorite song that reminds you of your first love: "Wicked Game" - Chris Isaak
Most memorable summer fling: Kevin Sherrill. Even though we had known each other since freshman orientation, I had no idea he was gay until we graduated. We first hooked up at my best friend's graduation party, and then again a week or two later. I remember talking to him on the phone during the series finale of "Melrose Place." The next week, he went to New York to make it big on Broadway, and I never heard from him again.
Best way to beat the heat: Taking a cool shower, and taking a nap in the coldest, darkest room in the house.
Favorite summer drink: Gin & tonic

I love that I saw your most embarrassing moment...and I love how much mileage we've still got left on it...good times...
Skipper - thanks for playing! Great answers... Yea, "At Last" is a great slow dance, grind your crotch into your partner song - had forgotten about that one... and the 5 you added were excellent... especially the smell of summer one... that does it for me...
btw, i carried this on at my page...if you're just that bored :-)
I just did a meme in my blog. I'll play the next time you guys do something like this. Good idea though.
P.S. I forgot to say that I yawned when I read about your friend making you yawn in class.
Holy cow... that picture brought back lots of memories. That was not long after I met you guys. Is that Scott? He was such a cutie. He worked with us at the Pier during the gay boys/ pagan girls era.
