Remember when...

Remember when I couldn't sleep on Christmas Eve?
Remember when I was 13 and painted my nails every night?
Remember when I took a shower and then a bath in the morning? Ooooh I love hot water.
Remember when I used to listen to the radio in my room on my parent's old stereo with brown speakers?
Remember when I used to eat an apple and Hostess apple pie for lunch everyday?
Remember my bright turquoise mini skirt?
Remember when I convinced Scott B. that I was a skateboarder?
Remember when I used to have a Butter Flavor Crisco monologue?
Remember when Unsolved Mysteries was like the scariest TV show?
Remember when I picked up Meri walking home from high school and was sure that people thought she was my daughter?
Remember when Mini Mart was new?
Remember when I thought that I looked really good in the color peach?
Remember when I wanted a Trapper Keeper so badly that I had dreams about it?
Remember going to Skate City? I still love roller skating. Anyone want to go?
Remember when we always ran into someone we knew at Albertsons?
Remember the Lead Bullet and DTV?
Remember K-Mart models?
Remember when Mom and Dad had a social life that was way more active and exciting than mine?
Remember my pot belly pig?
Remember playing croquet?
Remember jumping on the trampoline for hours on end?
Remember when Mel and I limped past the construction site so the construction workers wouldn't whistle at us?


What do you remember?

  1. Ok! I am totally going to post my remember when list! I just hope I can think of other things besides the ones on your list. I totally forgot about butter flavored crisco! And what is your pot bellied pig? That brought back good memories! We were a strange bunch.

  2. My pot bellied pig was a stuffed animal that "oinked" when its belly was squeezed.
