Maybe 8 or 9 years old. We went to the State Capitol building. And it's a domed building and on the inside you can go to the top of the dome and look down. It wasn't very challenging and nothing like a daredevil would need to do. A class of 30 kids did it. Now, I was pretty much afraid of heights. But I put my big boy pants on and marched through it. Some other kid, well he straight up started crying. Spazzing out. Like ugly crying, with snot and everything. I'm thinking "what a dork". Then it was a dilemma because he wasn't going up, but the teacher couldn't leave him alone, and someone needed to go up to the dome with the class. So of all people, the cutest girl in class chose to stay down with him. And was all nice and consoling. I'm just thinking "Son of a bitch, I could have done that, and I'd be talking to the cute girl instead of climbing these stairs scared shitless."
