Just after college, I guess. I'm in the stripes, Jeremy's making the BJ face.

The story here: I was three years old, and in tow as my parents went to visit some friends. I left the room and was quiet for a suspicious amount of time. They found me standing in the bathtub, having smeared shaving cream all over myself from head to toe.

An old family friend just posted this on facebook. I am the troublemaker in yellow who seems to be sticking her tounge out at the camera. The lady on the right is my Momz rocking an early 80s perm and some seriously questionable footwear.

Sharing here because of all the photos of me that exist from the past 11 years, this is probably my favourite:

Kenan clearly yet to discover his signature WDYLL pout.

roxymuzak, Sunday, 1 February 2009 11:24 (fifteen years ago) link

estela, Sunday, 1 February 2009 11:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Hoos has posted that pic elsewhere and I love it. He's ridiculously adorable.

Tucked in shirt is the clincher.

I found this embarrassment of horrible 12 year old 1987 fashion choices in the basement a few weeks ago:

My mother has been scanning some old photos, so here is my sister and me at three different ages:

When was the last one taken? I'm guessing mid 70's as there's a heavy "Donny & Marie" look to it.

snoball, Tuesday, 3 February 2009 14:02 (fifteen years ago) link

lol yeah, my sister was a big Osmonds fan. If I had to guess, I'd say 1978-79? I was born in November 1969, so that should give you an idea of the progression here.

Crossing the Mississippi. First thing I did after I got the casts off after surgery. I think I'm 10 here or thereabouts.

Me and some of the best writers & people I've ever known. National Poetry Slam, Albuquerque 2005. That's not Mountain Dew in the bottle.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 4 February 2009 22:00 (fifteen years ago) link

man I miss poetry slam things - great way to meet chicks at a college town
one girl basically wrote a poem called 'do me' - needless to say she wasn't my type

CaptainLorax, Thursday, 5 February 2009 02:07 (fifteen years ago) link

except our poetry was all amateurish

CaptainLorax, Thursday, 5 February 2009 02:07 (fifteen years ago) link

lemonheads!!

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Thursday, 5 February 2009 04:29 (fifteen years ago) link

Yeah. Not v positive.

sunny needless to say you look v v awesome in that bottom picture

roxymuzak, Saturday, 7 February 2009 00:53 (fifteen years ago) link

lol sunny, I had the same T-shirt (& I wasn't a huge fan of the band - I mostly liked the message the shirt communicated to the rest of the world).

Ricky Apples (Pillbox), Saturday, 7 February 2009 01:00 (fifteen years ago) link

i was so in love with that record i would have married it.

JAM, DWANGELA, RELLY! (sunny successor), Saturday, 7 February 2009 03:33 (fifteen years ago) link

Sunny I had the same shirt too but in all black. There was something on the back too . . . was it a lemon fetus with a gun or something? That might have been the first band shirt I ever bought. I loved the shit out of that record too.

Too Into Dancing to Argue (ENBB), Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:01 (fifteen years ago) link

All you alt.grrls had Dando crushes. I remember all too well..

Ricky Apples (Pillbox), Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:03 (fifteen years ago) link

hes gross iirc

roxymuzak, Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:04 (fifteen years ago) link

+ imo

roxymuzak, Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:04 (fifteen years ago) link

esp. after he smoked all that crack and all his teeth fell out!

Ricky Apples (Pillbox), Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:07 (fifteen years ago) link

j/k. poor guy. I wish him well. FWIW I did like that record. I just liked Lovey more. Lemonheads were part of a brief dalliance I had with Amer-indie, wedged in between more serious long-term relationships I had with mopey Brit post-punk & the 'gaze.

Ricky Apples (Pillbox), Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:11 (fifteen years ago) link

I don't know - I never had a big Dando crush but I did really like Hate Your Friends.

Too Into Dancing to Argue (ENBB), Saturday, 7 February 2009 04:24 (fifteen years ago) link

^^^this.

JAM, DWANGELA, RELLY! (sunny successor), Saturday, 7 February 2009 05:35 (fifteen years ago) link

sorry ladies. no offense - it's just that there were a lot of Dando crushes out there in those days, see.

Ricky Apples (Pillbox), Saturday, 7 February 2009 05:42 (fifteen years ago) link

almost as many as there were j. hatfield crushes

mookieproof, Saturday, 7 February 2009 06:49 (fifteen years ago) link

I was more of a Toni Halliday man myself
