The May 11, 2013 prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" is Write a list of statements beginning with "I used to think..." I used to think that the only type of coffee I could drink was hot black coffee, but then I tried iced cafe mocha. I used to think I had Arachnophobia, but then I killed a spider. I used to think I was not spontaneous, but then I realized that the best things I ever do are on the spur of the moment. I used to think I was not afraid of electricity, but then I got a shock. I used to think I could not cook, but then I ate my own cooking and survived. I used to think that the worst thing that could happen was to lose my teeth, but then I had to have all my teeth pulled and got dentures. I used to think that having no sense of direction was a negative, but then I got lost and realized that even without a sense of direction I can always find my way home. I used to think I could not write a vampire story, but then I entered the "Invalid Item" and realized it does not matter as long as I try. I used to think I had a weird sense of humor, but then I realized it does not matter as long as I have a sense of humor. Jump off the cliffs of speculation and strengthen your wings of imagination.
