firsts & lasts meme

[topaz]

first real kiss	Janay Moon, in 11th grade. During the American Survey field trip to Philadelphia. Lots of bad memories tied up with this.
First kiss I enjoyed	Caitlin Adams, 17, the summer after high school graduation. Much nicer. Caitlin and I spent about a week in unbelievably-horny-heavy-petting mode, so I took care of a buncha firsts that summer. :-)
first screen name	I went by "Crazy Diamond" on a bunch of NYC-area BBSes in the 1980s.
first self purchased album	Sting, "The Dream of the Blue Turtles."
first funeral	not yet.
first pets	Neal, a big English sheepdog we owned around 1972-1974. He was named after my parents' friend Jim Neal, who in turn had a dog named Pierce.
first piercing	left ear when I was about 18 and a college freshling.
first true love	unrequited: Cristina Lanteri, freshman year of high school. First returned: keyne :-)
first big trip	in 1975, my mother and her best friend, Jenny Lowenstein, drove across the country with their kids -- four children between the ages of 4 and 7. I still don't know how they got through it without killing at least one of us.
first musician you remember hearing in your house	probably the Beatles. I remember listening to "Magical Mystery Tour" on the stereo and getting very freaked out by reading the lyrics on the record sleeve.
last big car ride	Carlisle-to-Baitcon, last June.
last kiss	last night, kissing keyne good night at Homeport.
last good cry	about a month ago, after a very very dark couple of days.
last movie seen	Lost in Translation
last beverage drank	glass of orange juice at breakfast.
last food consumed	a slice of reheated pizza, at breakfast. :-)
last phone call	calling keyne from a pay phone in Kendall Sq, letting her know I would be another hour later getting home.
last TV show watched	The West Wing, "War Crimes."
last shoes worn	a nice comfy pair of brown Rockports.
last CD played	Leo Kottke, "Regards From Chuck Pink." I stole the portable CD player from the van and started taking it in to work. It makes such a difference. It's been too long since I had music in my life.
last item bought	probably dinner at Kaya last night in Porter Square. Does that count?
last disappointment	only getting a couple of hours for my birthday dinner with keyne -- barely enough time to get to the restauraunt, eat and get home.
last soda drank	a Coke at work. Free soda at work = DANGEROUS.
last ice cream eaten	Haagen-Dasz Dulce de Leche. keyne and I knocked off a whole pint last week in a fit of self-indulgence.
last shirt worn	right now a green Travelsmith t-shirt made out of Coolmax fabric. Surprisingly comfortable for polyester. Breathes nicely, so it's a great shirt to wear on a hot summer day.

Hello - I just came across your LJ and saw that you mentioned a friend of your mother named Jenny Lowenstein. Was that Jenny Lowenstein the daughter of Allard Lowenstein?
