Memory Lane… I scan an old random photo and discuss the story behind the photo.  I may regret this decision later on… my friends definitely will.

This is my “casual” senior picture, which was taken back in 1993 - I graduated high school in 1994.  I wish I could find the rest of the senior photos - they are a treat.  Especially the one of me draped in some god-awful purple smock, cupping a fake rose under my chin.  Maybe it’s best I cannot find those.  Of course I also took the traditional black, v-neck smocked senior picture as well, but this one was the “casual” one.  What cracks me up about this photo is that I really do not look that different now… seventeen years later… pathetic I know.  What also cracks me up is what I am wearing… do you remember those jumpers that were popular as hell in the early 90’s? - they were empire-waisted and zipped up in the back, they were all one piece and had wide legs that almost made it look like a dress, but it was not, it was a big illusion and it was really pants?  Awww yeah… that is what I was wearing!  I was AWESOME!!!
