I have a memory from my childhood that drives me nuts because I cannot for the life of me figure out what I was thinking when it took place. I may have discussed this briefly elsewhere on the site but I'd like to go into greater detail here because I still can't figure out what in God's name my (lack of) motivation was. This isn't a funny bit, incidentally. I'm just curious whether anything like this ever happened to you, and/or what you think might have been going on in my head, because although I remember the incident quite clearly, I can't for the life of me recall what my thought process was.

When I was a kid, my best friend was a girl. Even then, I couldn't remember a time when she wasn't my best friend. We were always together, riding bikes, playing games, doing little kid nonsense like little kids do (because they're gay and stupid).
