note to self

Do not look at childhood photos when drunk. Or even just slightly tipsy.

Next time you come over, I have a relatively succinct album of high school plus a few kiddie pix. I hardly recognize myself! And allllll the exes.

Including (here's a fun factoid) about two years ago, [livejournal.com profile] dietrich dated someone I had dated in high school!

Recommendation: stop looking at pix and go to bed!

You and [livejournal.com profile] dietrich definitely win the small world award, there.

In other news: bed... yes, that's not a bad idea!

Oh, wheee!

In response, here's one of me at 16 and my brother at 20, at my other brother's wedding (in clothes that my now-sister-in-law shoehorned us into). What you can't see -- the dress has pearls across the back.

Ha! Poofy sleeves wasn't enough? They had to add pearls? Wowsa.

On the flip side, in my picture, I picked out the dress. (And still own it, even.)

In your photo, you look happy and great! :)

Thanks! I'm trying to remember if I was happy. 8th grade was not a good time, so I'm sure I was glad to be finishing it. I'm pretty sure I was happy and feeling pretty in the moment that picture was taken, though.

Great photo

8th grade graduation?
We were all so young!

The very one! A blast from the past, eh?
