Fireside

When I first heard of this, my first thought was something along the lines of "Radical!" (This was a loooong time ago) I, thinking it was a campout, wanted to attend.

Even after being told it was going to be a talk, I still wanted to go, thinking it would somehow be different from all the other boring church talks - which I got through by drawing, reading and taking trips to the washroom which often lead to running down the chapel halls and going into rooms I shouldn't have been in, which occasionally resulted in open corporal punishment (Like I said, this was a long time ago, though I wouldn't be shocked to see such action still accepted in a meetinghouse)

My Mormon parent, older and in this case wiser, decided I should stay home instead.
