I remember being 11 and we were doing a time capsule. All the girls were writing stories about their future children and future husbands. They were putting in locks of their hair and pictures of themselves with makeup. What I wanted to include was a baseball I'd thrown when I got mis-categorized (according to the wisdom of the times) as a boy and pitched a very successful season in hardball. Then they found out I was a "girl". So I got kicked from the league, but I kept the baseball. I should look for it now. I tossed it away when it wasn't allowed in the time capsule. I put a drawing in of me driving a racing car.

I got to be there when they opened the time capsule. It was sad. I remembered what I wanted to put in. The drawing was pretty cool though :)

Lovely story about the baseball. Wish that could've happened to me!  :laugh: Strange how the past meant more to us at that age than the future. Well, not so strange, really.

PS. You driving a racecar?  :)
