circa 1987

It's funny the things
You come across
While packing

This is my prom picture
A group of us went "stag"
No boys, no drama
But who were we kidding
There was always drama

This is myself and my best friend
(Still to this day)
Geez, I must have used an entire can
Of Alberta V0-5 hairspray that night
And the pearls make me smirk, too

I've only worn pearls twice
This night
And with my wedding gown

Anyway
I remember being particularly
Proud of my tan that year
Not so proud now, though
As I count more wrinkles than I should
At 37

So
Chuckle away
Make fun
It deserves it....
