I was at a wedding of a coworker in the Somerville School Age Child Care program. It was open bar, all night. Kathy and I are a few sheets to the wind. Do you see that I'm drinking what looks like Windex? Would you believe that's not the first blue drink I had that day? Blue Hawaiians are very, very yummy.
I don't remember much about the ride home, aside from puking out the window of the Jeep I was in. It was a great wedding. I still have the dress in the picture.
Now, for more serious topics. Each year, I'm disgusted more and more by the fashions my students parade around in. I cannot WAIT to show these pictures to my girls who will be sporting leggings and skirts. This was taken in 1991.
I am wearing what probably were my dad's jeans and Chinese mary janes. I am ragingly tan from sitting at the Pool, checking for member badges. Juliana is thrilled that I'm reading to her.There's an even better picture of me in leggings, but I can't find it....yet. This was a look that I LOVED! It provided warmth and flaunted my skinny legs. Plus, it looked so cute with mary janes. Almost all of my current shoes are mary janes, but I don't have a pair of leggings. And you all will forbid me from buying any, won't you?

I'll keep you from buying leggings if you prevent me from buying Chinese Mary Janes. I've always been a sucker for Mary Janes, and I went through many pairs of the flimsy Chinese ones through the 1990s.
A note of caution: if you must wear Chinese Mary Janes, be extra-careful to not stub your toe, for there is no protection in the Chinese Mary Janes. I nearly broke my big toe and destroyed the toenail in a pair of those things. Which is why I'm not allowed to wear them anymore. Chinese Mary Janes and alcohol don't mix, my friend.
cute photo!!! and YES, i forbid you from buying leggings!!!
Rivetbob, take them back. I have instructed Dan to search and destroy!
