Full Disclosure
“Found this little gem while sorting old papers. It must have been attached to some work of art my eight year old daughter had bestowed upon me at some point. Charmed, I’m sure!”

Happy As A Clam
“My Halloween costume in 1992: spaghetti and clam sauce. There’s a big plexiglass fork on the side sticking up. My dad dribbled real clam juice all over me so no one would get too close at the middle school dance.”

Sharp Objects
“Florida, Halloween 1980. Me and my dad. My parents took a very liberal approach to the question of whether babies should be allowed to carve their own pumpkins.”

Mom Overboard
“Somehow this gem did not lead to therapy. Note the stripes on the shark (7 year old me had heard that tiger sharks were particularly vicious) and my sea sick/traumatized cousin at the back. My dad still hangs this up on the fridge much to the annoyance of my mom.”

Laser Focus
“Elementary school picture day. Lasers. Home perm by my grandma. Elastic pants and black comb in my pocket. Could not be more proud.”

Baby Bud
“It was my dad’s favorite beer, so his mother-in-law bought the fabric and made the sheets for my crib.”

Men In Back
“This was taken after my sister’s white coat ceremony for vet school. We didn’t realize we probably shouldn’t have posed like this until after the pic. Not exactly the style we were going for.”
