You actually look cute in all your awkward fashion fugliness.<BR/>That one with your dad? Except for the tablecloth dress... so adorable!<BR/><BR/>(BTW - You can rearrange pictures by cutting and pasting the html for them in your post.

Freaking. Awesome. I want to do this too and you have shown me that it's all okay because no matter how awkward the stage/hair/dress as long as you grew out of it, which you did so gracefully, it's okay to look back and laugh now.TBhttp://soulgardening.typepad.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7693979.post-1140577994160283502006-02-21T22:13:00.000-05:002006-02-21T22:13:00.000-05:002006-02-21T22:13:00.000-05:00I'm with Katherine...you looked quite lovely in the green velvet.

Just a fashion fatality like the rest of us. I'll have to send you a pic of me with my spikey hair.

I actually thought you looked gorgeous in the green velvet with the short curly hair. I too had Lee Press On nails!!

I did not experience the awkward fashions and hair choices of the 1980's alone!<BR/><BR/>You are so cool.No namehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01494956574025803344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7693979.post-1140549704850004872006-02-21T14:21:00.000-05:002006-02-21T14:21:00.000-05:002006-02-21T14:21:00.000-05:00I laughed so hard when I read your 'hot lesbian' comment that I almost woke up Oliver.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing these, Mrs. H.

But fear not--your natural cuteness shines through, even during adolescence.<BR/><BR/>How on earth did you get the Press-on Nails to stay on? I tried "MISS" Lee Press-on Nails for Teens, and still remember the commercial jingle(!), but even those wouldn't stay on.<BR/><BR/>Miss Lee Press-on Nails for Teens,<BR/>Smaller sizes is what you mean!<BR/>Innocence....<BR/>Just peachy....<BR/>Bubble gum....<BR/>Crushed grape!<BR/><BR/>(the above are shade names, and were spoken interspersed with cries of "awesome!" and other '80's-era exclamations)<BR/><BR/>Yes, I remember this, but not where I put my keys.Arabellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09284348393988748820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7693979.post-1140543254501276312006-02-21T12:34:00.000-05:002006-02-21T12:34:00.000-05:002006-02-21T12:34:00.000-05:00Oh, snap! Well, Frau, you will just have to look at them at home, because (*I* admit sheepishly) you are in one of the photos. Think Ring Dance. I probably should have gotten your permission. Holler if you want me to excise you from this historical account of our adolescence!<BR/><BR/>I will email you the photos so you can see the atrocities for yourself! <BR/><BR/>P.S. I forgive you for the grape soda.

This is my maiden voyage into commenting so please forgive me if I seem a little green. I just had to comment, though to vent my frustration - I can read the commentary, but I can't view the pictures because I am at work and when I click on them it says "Access Denied". I am DENIED. What a complete tease. The description are so good, I can almost picture it but not quite - Argh! Actually I was physically present for some of these events so my memory should serve me better than it is.<BR/><BR/>And for the record - you were NEVER a Nerdo... although I did quite enjoy the term.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, about the grape soda post... I wanted to comment, also for the record, that I felt terribly sheepish about that. Thanks for being such a good sport!Frau Doktornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7693979.post-1140542732666838052006-02-21T12:25:00.000-05:002006-02-21T12:25:00.000-05:002006-02-21T12:25:00.000-05:00"Who's that hot lesbian in the front? Why, that's ME!" <BR/><BR/>Oh that made me laugh. Well, all of this made me laugh. Very brave of you! <BR/><BR/>And don't you hate how blogger doesn't let you upload pictures in the order you want? I've learned I have to do it backwards ...Jess Rileyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06987689969282168406noreply@blogger.com
