I’m in a sharing mood this week, which ordinarily would be fine, but this week I’m in the midst of an extraordinarily odd realm of self consciousness. I have been contemplating everything as though it would be The Last Decision I Will Ever Make and My! God! How will it affect my loved ones? Seriously. I need to have a drink get a grip.
People from the office go for lunch and don’t ask if I’d like to go: They hate me! A lady looks me up and down: OMG. What’s she looking at?! Do I have a stain on my shirt? I knew I shouldn’t have worn this; it makes me look fat, doesn’t it? DOESN’T IT!? You know the drill. That’s how I feel this week.
So, without further adieu, a meme for you. I was tagged by Cakehead earlier this week. Cakehead? You got it. Cakehead. Oh, and she makes GORGEOUS cakes!
What were you doing 10 years ago?
June 1997? What was I doing? 16 years old. I graduated from grade 10, got my first part time after school job, and I may have been going to the strippers for my first time. I do believe that summer was pretty much a complete blur. High school, new friends, field parties, more freedom, I think that about sums it up.
What were you doing 1 year ago?
This time a year ago I was full into my schedule of Maternity Leave. Carter was just coming up on his first birthday, we had playgroups, swimming, shopping, etc. all day. This was about the time that things were getting interesting since he was more then just a mere bump on a log sitting in a bouncy chair staring at his fingers.

Since you begged nicely. lol *delurking*
I too pick wedgies, shamelessly, in public! I consider it one of my more endearing qualities. Sad, I know.
For some reason I can’t see my comment when I type so I’m in Notepad right now, hope this goes through OK.
One last thing - overalls versus bikinis, that is the question.
