My Earliest Memory (taken from VJ greetings)

i feel like i might crush something here.... i think one of the first things that i remember is going to the circus w/ my family and some of their friends. i remember the horrible smell. dark lighting. (even today my scariest dreams are the darkest. when i'm home alone ALL of the lights must be on.) i remember they brought out this unicorn that they had been advertising. i was so excited to see it. i didn't have glasses then, but even from the bleacher seats, i could still kinda tell that they dressed it up some. extra haid. maybe even the horn. i just remember feeling sorry for the poor thing. it looked trapped and scared as it was paraded around. everyone hollaring and applauding. i think i just stood there. mouth ajar. taking it all in. and realizing what an f*$ked up place it was and how no one really noticed. please comment w/ your earliest memory. according to VJ, and i believe i have heard/read this too, your first memory reflects your outlook on life.
