tumblrbot asked: WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST HUMAN MEMORY?
My first memory was quite an awakening. I think I was about 2 years old, perhaps 3; I was being pushed by my mum in my pushchair (or stroller for those americans out there) in the pouring rain.
I remember seeing a large and impressive oncoming truck (of the articulated variety) bearing down on me, and noticing a very large, rippling, glistening puddle in the road.
Needless to say, it was a shocking, cold, dripping wet, and rather miserable memory. A rude awakening to the realities of the human condition some might say.
My second memory, by comparison, is of sitting on the kitchen counter in my grandparents house mere moments after the ‘splash’ event, naked but for a warm and slightly scratchy blanket, sipping a warm and soothing drink from my ‘bisto’ sipper-cup. I’m not sure if it was gravy in the cup, but whatever it was, it warmed my cockles right up again :)
