That Meme You Do

I thought this could be fun.  Have at it folks!

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away.

Tell me about your fondest trip!

That would have to be the one that I took a few years ago with my entire family. (When we get together we have a clan). We went to Colorado and stayed near the Royal Gorge. All the parents and the younger children stayed in this big flat with several bedrooms and a kitchen...etc. But me, my sister and our 4 cousins got to stay in our own cabin!

While we were there we went horse back riding and hiking. Though my favorite thing was the white-water rafting. I had a blast and I got to go twice! Once was because my dad got too cold on the smaller rapids (we took all the kids, my cousin Kate got thrown in the river by our guide) and so he didn't want to continue with all the uncles to the bigger rapids, and since I am the oldest they let me take his place. And then a few days later he and a few of my uncles, my step-mom and my sister and cousin Lizzy all went again. I've never had so much fun and I really want to do it again.

We met at a Baton Rouge feature game almost two years ago. It was my second game ever and I was really overwhelmed with the number of people so I just stayed with the people that I knew and didn't talk much to anybody.

V made a point of talking to me and really helped me feel a lot more comfortable. Later that night we were all hanging out and he kissed me and there was a real spark. Of course both of us were so exhausted that neither of us thought to get the other one's email or phone-number of even real name.

We didn't talk for a month or so, then Connor died and I made an LJ post about it, which our mutual friend directed him to. I got his AIM from his LJ profile and added it to mine hoping that on the off-chance he would get online. He did one day and I IMed him and well...you know the rest goes.

I was telling my side of the story. In which, I never saw you fall off the stage.
*kisses*
At least you know I'm not with you out of sympathy!

How many immediate family members do you actually have (say, including first cousins, aunts/uncles/steps/halfs)? I know it must be some astronomical number, and you more than likely told me at some point, but I can't for the life of me remember.
