Getting the fourth (fifth? sixth?)post in this blog.
Seriously though, it would be the day I received Beast Machines Tankor and TFTM in the mail, and discovered a long-buried passion. I giggled like a little girl all through the movie.

That would have to be the day that my best friend threw me my 15th birthday party- it was a surprise Luau party and it was awesome. I was in my first year of high school and all my friends from middle school were at the rival school. They all showed up, and people I hadn’t seen since elementary school were there too. It was awesome. My best friend rocks!

Well, to be perfectally honest I probably cannot relate it here at this time. Would not be proper. But it involved a beautiful girl, a bottle of wine, and the boundless beauty that is nature.
or the time that I found the toyfare listed 45 dollar Roboto for 4 bucks at Toys r Us.
Yeah, that was good too.

Too many to mention, and choosing one seems like it belittles the others. Still, let’s go with the most recent one…April 3rd, 2004.
I finally got the balls up to tell the girl I’ve had a crush on for months how I feel about her.
Admittedly, it wasn’t quite what I had intended to say – it ended up being more along the lines of "You’re really important to me, and I’m glad that we’re friends." Still, that’s a pretty major event for little old sociophobic me.
And yes, I am in high school – a junior, if anyone cares.

Drat! A-Punk beat me to the shmaltz! Uhh, let me think. Well, this more cynical, but it’ll work for me. The day I graduated high school. Ha-ha! I hated school, so I was very happy to be done with it. Think I’ll follow jessica’s example and get some ice cream as soon as I cash my paycheck. mmmmmmmmm…… Rocky Road….. drooooooooool….

The best day of my life was seeing Paul McCartney in concert a couple years ago. No, really.
ps. for those of you who are serious about your best day being the day you received a toy- thats just really sad.

This is sort of off topic, but I had something brought up to me the other day. Did anyone else have Mexican Pizzas at their school? They were the best tasting things in the world and it seems like you can no longer find them anywhere in the real world.
I mean, yes, I know you can get similar named things at Taco Bell. The thing is that they taste nothing like my gov’t issued low grade school food.
*sigh* how I miss the Mexican Pizza.

I’ve Had many "best days," but one that sticks out in my mind would be the day I recieved my car-1998 Red VW New Beetle.
I had finished High School All Region Choir tryouts, and I didn’t make it. I was pretty bummed, not to mention tired–the tryouts were an all day event.
Anyway, my parents had gotten the car while I was gone and had it waiting for me. It was pretty awesome.

The day I found a ghostbusters pencil in the school hallway, free for the taking!
Or…the day I met my girlfriend yay!

The last day of seventh grade. I was being slightly snarkier than everyone else about this video my Christian Ed teacher had made us watch. He took me out into the hall to lecture me and goes into how I’d been a bad Christian in class *all* year (I’m Jewish), and he sure hoped for my sake I could turn around by next year or my *grades* would be in trouble (straight A’s, even in his class; it drove him insane).
He had me sitting in a little plastic chair. He was kneeling in front of me, his soft white underbelly totally exposed. I had a long history of abrupt kicks towards the sensitive places. He was leaving for another school.
And still, he had absolutely no idea.
Oh, the way his eyes bugged out.
I take joy from all the wrong things. (Oh, and the day I got my own computer was pretty good, too.)
Ooh…best day? That’s a humdinger! I know the best year of my life : 1995 baby! 1995 was sweeeet.

The day I got my new Z… so like a year ago.
Chestnuts roasted by Wills @ 04/30/2004 3:28 PM
I’m with Kristal 1995 was the best year of my life. But the best day of my life so far (theres two of em) 10/15/01 and 04/15/03 the day my children were born.
Damn I’m such a sentimental sot.

New Year’s Day, this year. The day I finally beat my cocaine addiction. Seriously. Bad stuff.
Chestnuts roasted by Clean Myke @ 04/30/2004 3:55 PM
I don’t know… probably the day I got my first car. I still have it. 1989 Tuarus baby!

OldSchooler, our kids have close birthday days. Mine are 10/12/98, 4/25/01 (also, my 26th birthday, natch) and 3/31/03. Our last ones are only 2 weeks apart. Hooray for coincidence!
Besides all of that sentimentality, the best day of my life would have to be I finally fit back into my size 8 jeans. Yay, me!
Chestnuts roasted by trajeal @ 04/30/2004 4:09 PM
Any day that contains any combination of the following: little people, robots, robots piloted by little people, Pac-Man, Spider-Man, chocolate, early George Carlin, MST3K, Lynda Carter, South Park, monkeys, Monkees, Nick Danger, Benny Hill, Amalgam Comics, licorice jellybeans, pizza, paper airplanes, Green Lantern, Issac Asimov, Big Macs, that song about the drunken Scotsman and his kilt, Lava Lamps, Zero bars, Dr. Demento, origami, and TeleVision. Not a complete list, but what the hey.
(strikes dramatic anime’ pose)
COMBINATION, GO!
