Photo Phriday--'90s style

I'm takin' it back to the old school, 'cause I'm an old fool who's so cool...

This weekend is my 20th high school reunion. I know. I can't believe I'm that old, either. Why, thank you for saying I look so much younger. *cough*
 
Anyway. I was in high school during the days of pinch-rolled jeans, Keds, big hair and acid wash. People didn't have cell phones; we had to type our papers on (gasp!) typewriters; and I had not yet learned the necessity of highlights for a person whose natural hair color starts with the word "dirty" (or dishwater--take your pick).

Though I'm not going to my reunion, I thought I'd dedicate today's entry to some truly embarrassing photos of me. I must really, REALLY love you guys.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
Senior year--football game.

Graduation day--my mom putting on the necklace I got as a gift.
Probably freshman year. No one tell my brother I put this up, OK?

Look, kids. We used to have these things called home phones. And they had CORDS. Weird, no?

Heidi, one of my best friends, and me. Guess what concert we were heading to that night?
Bonus pic--Heidi and me in January. We turned out pretty well, with only minimal aerosol damage.

I just went to my 30th high school reunion this past weekend and had a blast. It was a great feeling to go back thinner than I was five years ago, knowing that the past couple of years I made some major life style changes. The best part about it all is that I am happier and healthier. Being thinner was just a side benefit.
