THE
MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT OF MY LIFE – JACK AND THE SNOWBALL
Those
of you who knew me from the 11 or so years spent at KCA probably remember I was
ultra “boy-crazy” – and not particularly athletic (I forgive you all for not
ever wanting me to be on your team, because can’t blame you there)!!!
I
was in the 6th/7th grades when I had the most horrendous,
not so secret, crush on an 11th/12th grader – I’ll admit
it! Jack Wilson! Dorothy D., Rachel S., Grace K., Ellen K.,
Karen S. – you would remember in particular.
One
winter day, we had a somewhat unusual occurrence – snow! A bunch of us were out on the lawn in an
all-out snow battle. Naturally, having
this extreme infatuation, I crunched some snow together into quite the
impressive snowball, and as Jack got within target shooting range I tossed that
snowball with all my might, aiming directly at Jack, with, remember – lack of
athletic ability – only to have that darn snowball land on my feet!
In
retrospect, that about summed up my total relationship with Jack…and since I’m
not as embarrassed as I once was… why not share the moment!
