Festy goodness, and random acts of kindness

Prompting is open at mini_fest! Signups are still open at sshg_giftfest!! hp_goldenage is going to have an anonymous promptfest this fall!!!

So much fun, so little time...

Borrowed from toblass and savine_snape:

After all the recent terrible tragedies that have and are happening it's time for some positivity and kindness to happen.

So, I'm going to grab the pay-it-forward idea and put a little twist on it. The first twelve people to comment will get a surprise from me at some random point during the next twelve months.

All I ask is that in your comment, you share something with me about yourself that I may not know otherwise. This might be a good opportunity for me to get to know my friends better as well.

Ooh, I can't wait to see what I learn ::rubs hands in anticipation::

It's funny the things that stick with us. I have a couple of very vivid memories of mean things I did as a kid, too. But 's kind of nice that it became a reason for you to cherish random cats that wander through your life -- an example of lots of good coming out of a small bad.

Agreed. Putting it that way is a gift in itself! *scritches pups for good measure*

And for something less sad that you don't know about me, my best friend and I once defied our parents by sneaking out of a parentally-mandated event and driving to the next state because there was a Taco Bell. Yes, I grew up in a small town in the midwest- how did you guess? :D

Ha!! I feel your pain. nursedarry and I once drove from our own (then-)smallish town to a VERY small town to see a high school performance of Camelot (I'm mad for that show, I would see it anywhere). We planned to arrive early so we could have a drinky or two beforehand (because high school musical). We drove around looking in vain for a bar; finally we stopped a passerby and queried. "Oh, you can't have a bar within 500 yards of a church," they said, "and there's nine churches in this town. So no bars." We may have cried a bit...
