Childhood Beliefs/ideas/etc.

When i was about 5 or so my friend miriam used to play a game called “sit around and talk”. During ones of these hardcore gaming sessions she told me that her father was named Skateboarding On Deck. She told me stories of how he is the best skateboarder in the world and he was the coolest person ever. For the next like 5 years i believed every word she said, and i think she kind of did too. The funny thing is i knew her father well and yet i still believed that he was somekind of professional skateboarder.
Another game we used to play was called “The Do Nothing Game” basicly we would just lay down not moving a muscle for like 10 minutes at a time. Then we realized it was impossible cause our hearts were beating and we were breathing. We were strange children…
