If you could go back to one year what would it be?
1993, Nirvana (Kurt was alive and rockin), senior year of highschool (I knew everything), Grunge style, bad haircut, bad job, psycho girlfriend, drugs, alcohol, shitty car, buying a dollar's worth of gas at a time, Lollapalooza, 2 hours of sleep a night, running from the cops, firecrackers in the mall.

I'm 14 years past my prime, boo hoo. Bring back grunge.

5. Interesting question...
there are two:
I'd go back to July/August 2004 to say a proper goodbye to my mom.
to October of the same year, to tell my friend Lesley to get the chemo, please. :cry:

7. 1975


Or, maybe, 1985. It was a pivotal year for me, coming hard on the heels of a year of massive heartache...there was a girl in Texas, too, that I could have done things differently with, and I have often wondered what would happen if I did. I traveled the US on a shoestring that year, taking a year off in the middle of my degree (badly messed up by this girl, almost killed in a motorcycle crash that was one of four I had in the previous year) to come to this country.

In 1975 I was a kid, 11 years old, and had the best kind of place to live in -- an outdoor pursuits center in a remote part of my home country -- and traveled to another country for a month of most excellent exploring. I didn't yet know I was going to be as lonely as I later got and it was a great time. I lived in the sea, the bush, and the rivers. The music was good, too. :D
