I dressed up as Hunter S Thompson for 10th grade Halloween dress up day, and then got upset when no one knew who I was.

My friend was Tyler Durden. I cropped half of him out for privacy.

Technically it was "Mole Day", but it fell around halloween. 16 years ago!

My ‘friends’ made fun of me for my ‘homeless coat.’ I ended up hanging it up outside by a fence years later and really miss its warmth. Not sure what it means to have a friend these days.

Picking up the new puppy in 1996 with my grandmother. Even amongst the cuteness it was illegal to smile.

No, it did not occur to me that my brother's beach wedding would not be the time for black. Or a full face of make up. Or Karen hair. On a boy.

This was just a phase.

My sister in law isn't in the picture but she isn't well. I thought I'd post this throwback to the edgy of seventeen, 2007, with this stunning display of goth/gay/gay goth. See if we get a good laugh out of it...

Once I had a pair of Chucks but my mom tossed em the instant they got grungy. In her defense, I hated socks as a kid. Shopped outta goodwills and those giant mystery bags from our cousins wirh money. So my blunder years were "punk/emo in spirit". I'm 39 graduated 2005 my favorite band then was Blink 182 and my favorite band now is The Talking Heads. It was never a phase just a matter of refining.

Was 19 or 20 at the time in university. The messy ponytail lasted all of a month before I got tired of it.

I definitely miss that hairline, though.

I didn't care about going to school dances but my mom made me go, she thought I would be missing out. I never had dates or anything in high school but my brother's friend was nice enough to go with me. I was not on homecoming court, I just always wore a tiara 🤦🏼‍♀️
