Mouthful of a Meme

Just when I'm stretched for content, I go and get meme'd again. And this one is a real mouthful, and a bit more personal than others past. "I hate these things, but I'll do it to humour my husband," she cries. And then goes and invents one of her own... Pah, love em or hate em. It's better than nothing!

1. First town you ever lived in: Adelaide, Australia. First 21 years of my life. Nowadays I get back there a couple of times a year to visit family.
2. First album owned: Ghostbusters soundtrack. On vinyl.
3. First pub gig seen: The Cruel Sea as part of the final party of O'Week at Adelaide University. Until then my sheltered nightlife experience was bad dance music at a dodgy meat-market called The Big Ticket (see later).
4. First Celebrity Crush: Alison Brahe on the kids TV show Guess What?
5. First film you remember seeing: Superman II when I was 5 or 6. Apparently I cried in the cinema when he gave up his superpowers to marry Lois Lane. My cousin still teases me about it.
6. First time you drank alcohol: Tequila slammers at Roh's house while his parents were away. We made prank phone calls at 3am and I made an absolute goose out of myself.
7. First paying job: Offloading boxes from the back of a delivery truck at John Martins department store. It was great because I didn't have to deal with customers and got to flirt my 16 year old ass off with the ladies on the floor as I made my deliveries.
8. First Kiss: A girl from school named Meryn, on the balcony of The Big Ticket while I was drunk off my arse. I broke from the throng of passion to (does it get any classier) lean over and hurl my guts up over the edge of the balcony. She then proceeded to continue kissing me. I remember thinking this was odd at the time. But she was an odd girl.
