Class of '83

Eeek, ack -- who the heck is that? There is a challenge going around the writer's blogs to post your senior high school picture. I've seen it on a few blogs, most recently on Suzanne Young's, but I think it originated elsewhere. So, here is mine. I couldn't have looked more ticked off if I tried. I was in the class of '83, so this picture had to be taken in the summer of '82 when I was 17. I have never been comfortable with having my picture taken and I remember this session because the photographer had all these crazy poses. Looking at it, there is no denying this was the 80s with the feathered bangs and faded out perm. Finding this picture wasn't an easy task. I nearly tore up the entire house. The only place I knew it was for sure was in one of those collage picture frames. I really didn't want to dismantle that either. After sorting through some old photo albums, digging through a cupboard, emptying out my desk drawer, going through both nightstands, checking wallets and looking in our dresser, I finally went to bed without the picture. And typical, as soon as I was in bed, I remembered there was one in a photo album I hadn't checked. I got out of bed and finally found it. Whew! So, I will pass the challenge onto anyone who reads my blog to post their senior picture. Hopefully, it won't be as hard for you to find as mine was ...
