What is the story of your best scar?
"Scars" by Papa Roach
Scar???? I've never considered any of my scars to be the best. Just a show of my clumsiness.
ReplyDeleteI do though have a wicked scar in my eyebrow that makes plucking a real pain.
I love this topic. It's making me relive some fun childhood memories. :-)

Here's http://www.abbystevens.com/2011/04/rtw-scars-remind-me.html
ReplyDeleteGREAT topic!
Er, that comment is supposed to say, "Here's mine." Anyway... :)
ReplyDeleteI wish any of my (abundant) scars had stories worth relaying. That being said, I'll consider this question over the next few hours and see if I'm perhaps forgetting something . . . !
ReplyDeleteConsidering my mother raised me a chicken, it's hard to locate a scar... http://bit.ly/fsOqa2
ReplyDeleteOh yes. Now this is a topic that I know mucho abouto.

Mine disappeared! Here it is again...

Here's mine. :)
ReplyDeleteI have my very own Harry Potter scar, right in the middle of my forehead. It's not so lightning-bolty though.
ReplyDeleteI don;t have any interesting scars so I blogged about the time I was lookout while two of my friends tried to give themselves piercings: http://kathleenpeacock.blogspot.com/2011/04/rtw-lookout.html
ReplyDeleteSo many to choose from . . .

And BTW, I love to give my characters scars, and stories of how they got them, as part of the character development. Even if they never make it into the book.
Ah! I thinking I might do a LATE RTW on Thursday because I absolutely love this topic. If I do, I'll come back and leave a link.
ReplyDeleteI'll play!

Finally got a chance to do RTW again!

I was somewhere I didn’t belong, in a place where I didn’t know the rules, and I was rewarded with the best scar of my life.
ReplyDeletehttp://lynnehansen.wordpress.com/2011/04/13/best-scar/
Oh, the joys of not having an ironing board...http://beefcakeandbabes.wordpress.com/2011/04/13/road-trip-wednesday-6/
ReplyDeleteOKAY, here is the link : http://tencentnotes.blogspot.com/2011/04/scar-story.html My scar story
ReplyDeletehahaha. I usually need to tone down the words.
ReplyDeleteI totally participated but then forgot to link to my website.

The scar I picked to blog about is on my right temple, and it's from two injuries. First time I fell, second time I was bit. Yeah...
I am new to this, and I'm just catching on. Please forgive my ignorance (or lameness, whichever word you prefer). Next week, I shall do better!
ReplyDelete1. Never ride off the sidewalk into the street without looking; you may ride into your older brother and lose two teeth.
2. Never ride your older brother's bike (sensing a pattern?) really fast around a turn, skid out and rip a hole in your knee when your parents aren't home to take you to the ER because you will still have gravel in your leg in your 40s.
3. Be cautious in your consumption of alcohol and salty snacks at the first party you attend after you wean your youngest child because it can lead to dehydration, passing out and waking up bleeding on the floor in front of his bedroom with no real memory of how you got there. And of course your husband is away on business, so you have to call one neighbor to watch the kids and another to drive you to the hospital.
4. And of course, be really, really careful with the cheese grater.
Super late:
