12. Back in the day: Been caught sneaking out? When I was a kid, yes. And once as an adult. It was creepy. After a very bad first date, I ditched the gentleman in my apartment building's vestibule. I got in to my place and saw the Blockbuster case on top of my TV, checked my watch, and realized that if I returned the DVD within the half hour I wouldn't get a late fee. So I grabbed it and raced the two blocks to Blockbuster. When I got home, there was a message on my machine from my very angry date who was accusing me of literally running out to a second date and calling me all kinds of unpleasant names. He told me he never wanted to see me again -- which, of course, was fine by me.13. Ever wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? Yes.
