Werewolf In Blackpool

“Blackpool c.1986. I’m the one in the mask and furry gloves standing with my brother. I wanted to be a werewolf and refused to take the costume off for photos or anything for that matter and kept it on all day.”

The Fly

“This was from one of my dance recitals – my dance teacher chose me to be in the older group’s dance, where they were spiders. I was dressed like a fly and buzzed around the stage until they trapped me with a white parachute (their spider web). Possibly the most embarrassing photo of me ever…”

Stuffed

“This is the way my mother found my sister sleeping. In her pajamas she has a puppet, a stuffed monkey, a stuffed seal, two blankets, and a watch.”

Dog Mob

“We were at a friend’s barbecue, and their puppies cornered me and attacked. Not the first time my mother took a picture instead of helping, and not the last time either.”

Fit To Be Bow Tied

“Me and my brother, mid 70’s, in the classic bully shot. Can hardly blame him for pounding on me with my bow tie and vest, though. Thanks, mom and dad.”

Baby Shark

“This is me in 1976 in my bedroom. My father thought putting a pool table in my bedroom was an appropriate birthday gift for a kid my age.”

Best In Show

“This was at a horse show in 1991. A lovely picture of my mother before her class. And yeah…that’s 8 year old me picking the most epic wedgie of my life.”

Lady Of The Desert

“This is a picture of me around 10 years old at the ‘Lady of the Desert’ in Beatty, NV. I have no idea what my mother was thinking when she took it, but knowing me I probably begged for a picture next to the giant statue!”
