The truth

“Everyone has two memories. The one you can tell and the one that is stuck to the underside of that, the dark, tarry smear of what happened.” ~ Amy Bloom

The hamster story upset you that much?

Miss Thystle said...

I could tell you a hamster story that would make that one look like a cake walk!

Jane! said...

I'm up for another gory hamster story. Lemme just go freshen my water bottle.

PearlsOfSomething said...

Uh... just two? One of each? I must be a bigger loser/freak than I thought!

kristin said...

wow. what happened?

you're very dark today.

Miss Thystle said...

Peals - I think you're meant to have two memories of each incident. Not two total.

Kristin - Um. Some stuffs. That sucked. And in one instance, I made an ass of myself as well for added spice.

Ruby said...

Oooh, I demand a)the hamster story and b) the two versions of whatever memory you thought of when you read this quote. Because I bet that both are really good!

Bj in Dallas said...

that is too deep for me- without any wine, then I would totally get it.
Hampster stories over here???
How about Hampster RECIPES, now thats what I'm talking about...

PearlsOfSomething said...

Ah!
Like remembering the joys of visiting your blog while suppressing the memories of shoving both feet down my dumb esophagus.

Me thinks yours must be much more interesting than that, though.

Lorrie Veasey said...

cough the story up before the peta people figure what we're up to

Lorrie Veasey said...

ps
your story...does it happen to involve Richard Gere?

Miss Thystle said...

OMG. Fine, I'll tell y'all the hamster story, but I WARNED YOU.
