I’m really terrible at Memes. I post impulsively most of the time(and later go back and edit for grammatical, spelling errors etc) and a meme doesn’t have the spontaniety element. Plus I’m just too lazy to write about something that I wasn’t driven to post about. Well, Lex has tagged me for a ‘10 secrets meme’. Even though initially I groaned at the thought (sorry Lex, I’m a lazy bum at times), I’ve enjoyed travelling down memory lane for most of the ’secrets’. I love reading memes though so it’s only fair. I’m supposed to tag two persons but you know what? You are all tagged. As long as you’re reading this post, you’re tagged. Simple as that.
1. At age 17, I was in love with a ‘foreign’ cousin. I thought he looked so cute. He had jerry curled hair which was hot at one time but not the dripping type. Ok, stop laughing y’all. I think he was about 20 at the time. We actually did indulge in some touchy-feely. (Gosh, I hope my family doesn’t find this blog).
2. I once double-booked a date. Not intentionally. This was back in the days when I was a hot-to-trot 20 y-o with men lining up to date me. Happened like this. Phone rang, male voice on other end. Fellow asked where and what time he should pick me up on Saturday. Assuming that he was the person that I had already made plans with for Saturday but hadn’t confirmed the pickup time and place, we made firm plans for him to pick me up at work. I was too embarassed to cancel when I realized that he was wrong person after speaking with him some more. So I did the cowardly thing and asked my girlfriend to meet me at work (to do what I don’t recall now) but I remember sneaking out with the right one and being worried that the ‘wrong’ one would see.
3. In my 20’s I dated quite a few older men for the shock value. Wasn’t interested in them (nor their money either-I was a well-brought up child who was taught not to accept money from men!) but was just mischieviously trying to get a rise out of my mother. In retrospect, she handled that phase quite ok, considering that some were about her age.
4. My Aunt caught me ‘getting it on’ with my neighbor when I was about 8 y-o. He was the same age. At that age ‘getting it on’ meant me sitting (without panties) on his lap, concealed by my dress/skirt and ‘rubbing’. I was reprimanded so loudly that I hid in my room in shame for the next two weeks. When I thought it safe to come out, it turned out that the entire street heard about it. I wanted to die.
5. I used to invite all the children in neighborhood over to peep on our tenant when he had his girlfriend over on Thursday nights for sex. I was probably about 9 or 10 y-o. He was an ‘elderly’ gentleman of about 50 and his g/f was about the same age. He didn’t know he was Feature Presentation for the neighborhood rascals once per week. We couldn’t see much with the light off but from the sounds we knew something ‘rude’ was going on.
6. I use to wear a ‘Mr. T’ hairstyle ‘down-under’ I thought it was cute and was greatly amused by the expression on my Doctor’s face whenever I had to see him and it involved me stripping.
7. After I got tired of the ‘Mr. T’ hairstyle, I attempted to texturize my pubic hair. I don’t recall now if that was the time when I had to hop screaming to the shower or that was because somehow I had gotten rubbing alcohol down there.
8. I have a profile on ‘AdultFriendFinder’. I created the profile for fun. Yes, it’s for fun, I have no intention of meeting up with any of those horny fellows. It’s hilarious reading the messages that my ‘very steamy’ profile generates though. Offers for all-expense paid trips to exotic places, invitations to meet up in Negril or Florida, just to have sex. Hehe. No! I won’t tell you the name I use. Haven’t checked it in a while though.
9. I love swimming nude in Negril. It’s liberating!!! Correction. I enjoyed it back in the days when I had the body of a supple 20 y-o. I’ve put on some weight since 5 years ago, the last time I was there, so will have to see if I still like that when I go in December.
10. I rarely brush my teeth more than once per day. But I’m addicted to flossing. Every day, quite often several times per day. I don’t walk with a toothbrush but you’ll find floss in my bag.
Ok, there you have it. Juicy details about me.

Juicy for real - I’ll get around to doing a 10 secrets Meme, today or tommorrow.
Lex // September 27, 2006 at 10:16 am
YAY!!!! Thanks, Gela, for complying.
1. You are so not alone with the whole “kissing cousins” thing. Yikes. That’s more common than I care to think about, apparently.
2. That was just smart.
4. OK! That’s IT. I’m not having kids, for sure. (Not that I wasn’t probably doing something similar at 8, probably with a cousin.) But still. My heart can’t take it.
5. Too Funny! You were a mess.
6. That’s actually quite popular now. You started the trend?
7. You did WHAT??? LOL. Omygod!! I’m surprised you have anything left down there. Are you CRAZY??
8. Oh please. Say it ain’t so. When I found ex’s profile on that site, I started packing my bags.
9. That sounds wonderful?? Do you really have to be a perfect 10 to enjoy that? I think my 10 days are gone forever, but I still don’t mind being naked and that sounds like fun.
10. Good for you. I’m sure you have a gorgeous smile.

Melody // September 27, 2006 at 3:14 pm

fun read.

1. Ladies, cousins or siblings getting it on is mainly bad if they procreate. I don’t get the need for shame.
9. Do it for those of us who can’t swim. And why do you want to talk trash about your bodies, Gela & Lex?
Abeni // September 27, 2006 at 8:36 pm
That was funny .
Island Spice // September 27, 2006 at 9:45 pm
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHA! You crack me up! Love it!!
So, er.. whats a ‘meme’? .. I am pretty new to this blogging thing. I am a child. Teach me.
cooldestiny // September 28, 2006 at 8:42 am
Wow … my secrets are a bit extreme for the blog world … and believe me … I have a whole lot more than 10. At a glance though from your list, I also have an Adult Friend Finder profile I set up for fun and also had a “getting it on” encounter at 6 which I mentioned in my “102 Things about Me”.
Yours was fun though

At least you didn’t jerry-curl your pubic hair… Let’s see, borderline incest, pre-pubescent sexual activity, voyeurism, pubic mohawks, genital chemical burns, internet sex and exibitionism… Except for the OCD flossing thing, we have a lot in common…
Ps. if Blogger eats your posts, write them in Word, save them first, then cut and paste them into the Blogger editor [... I am a former Blogger user and know your pain...]
Leon // September 28, 2006 at 6:50 pm
Wow Gela. Didn’t know you were so adventurous. If I choose to do this meme, mine won’t compare to yours.
Jdid // September 29, 2006 at 5:58 am
well well well. seems like ya was very force ripe as a pickney
Teenage Perfectionist // September 29, 2006 at 6:12 am
That is just beautiful Check out my blog.
Scratchie // September 29, 2006 at 2:08 pm
Some intersting tidbits in there Gela lol
JamaicanQueen // September 29, 2006 at 3:05 pm
Never did the texturize but I get the shocked look because I sport a baldy!
Gela's Words // September 29, 2006 at 8:07 pm
Let me see now. A Meme is a post done by everyone (Reference: Dictionary of Gela N TheCity)
Afroditee, I’m shocked myself just looking back. When I do have children, they’re going to be kept in the house, no playing with neighbor’s kids. Hell, I probably should home-school them. Plenty ‘rude’ things happen on playgrounds too.
I wonder if most children fool around with relatives? Looking back now, there’s always a male cousin around that I was playing Doctor and Nurse with.

Nice! (As Bill said when Monica showed her the thong!)
Guyana-Gyal // October 3, 2006 at 7:07 pm

minoramp // July 14, 2007 at 10:27 pm
