I was 3 or 4, and hooooo boooy, let me tell you how significant this moment was for me. Thomas gets pushed onto an abandoned ferry by those good-for-nothing Troublesome Trucks and sinks into a marsh. I positively lost my shit. I vividly remember rushing into the dining room where my mom was chatting with her friend, and I would not let them continue talking until they came in and watched it again. I'm sure I wore that part of the tape out replaying it over and over and over again. Looking back now, I think it radicalized me.
Idk why I memory holed this but I yelled this to my mom while watching the TV and I was really impressed at my ability to make up a rhyme??? And I guess I held onto it in childhood because I remember realizing it was a reliably dated very early memory. im pretty sure 3 year olds know their age so Iām pretty sure itās a real memory but never confirmed there is an episode where Clifford turns 3 (he is canonically 2 years old tho) Very odd memoryā¦everything about it is āgoldenā when I think of it in my mind. must be pretty cool to be that New To Earth
I was 3.5 when I became sentient, I had just been dropped off at my momās best friends house while my parents headed to the hospital to deliver my sister. there are spurts of memories that fade in from there on, playing house under palm trees in Cali, getting pinched by a sand crab at daycare, summers at my grandmaās farm.
letās normalise a conversation where i can dislike a song you like and vice versa and we donāt try to change each otherās minds and then we frolic in a field and pick daisies. please.
