When I was 6, my mother brought me to Neiman Marcus with her. She was purchasing something at the register when I spotted a display case next to us. This display case had all these pretty snow globes on it. I thought it was one of those display cases that would spin around so I sat there trying to get the display to turn. My mother was busy purchasing something and didn't think that her klutzy daughter, who was right at her side, was getting into any mischief. I started tugging at the display case to get to turn. All the sudden, the display case toppled over. Beautiful snow globes shattered everywhere. Glass, water, and "snow" went all over the floor. The look on my mother's face was a mix between sheer humiliation and "I want to kill my daughter". My mom said that the sales lady and the manager just stood there with their mouth dropped on the floor. The pretentious Neiman Marcus customers clucked their tongue at my mom. I think she honestly thought about selling me to another family to pay off the price of all the broken snow globes. To this day, my mother won't tell me how she had to pay to fix my "damage".

Ok, I did forget the funniest one.

My father taught me "ding dong avon calling" when I was a child.

Well one day I stood up in church (dad did not attend in those days), lifted up my dress (yes I was a bit of an exhibitionist as a child) pressed my belly button and said a bit loudly "ding dong mommy, ding dong".

God only knows how much trouble my father got in for all the things he taught me.......:D

:( Well a nice thread until the post where pet animal was killed by being burnt alive. Maybe it was the "funny smiley" at the end which really made it for me :(.

I apologize.. it wasn't meant to offend anyone. :(

ok no problem :)

Ummm...was that #1 or #2? You know I had to ask. :eek:

ETA: Okay I must have missed the "mud pie" part. That was TRIFLING! :D

I used to have sticky fingers when I was a kid. I used to steal LIP GLOSS everywhere I went. I also used to steal pencils and pens from my classmates. I had a whole collection of them in my desk. Whenever someone accused me of stealing their pencils, I would snap it in half so no one could use it. What the hell was wrong with me? :o

When I was about four, I was sleepwalking (I just realized that I might have posted this somewhere on GC but OH WELL!) and ended up in the living room where my parents were entertaining guests. I used to sleepwalk a lot because I had some serious brain problems after a severe head trauma at the age of two.

So, I walked into the living room and my parents didn't realize I was asleep. I told them that I had to go potty and my mother said go ahead, thinking I was asking for permission. Since I was potty-trained, I obviously wasn't wearing a diaper and as I stood there, I peed all over the floor! Of course, this is all from stories told by my mother...I don't remember it at all!
