A Response to Besties: Abridged

A hilarious remark from my dear (snarky) friend, Garrett, drew my attention to how particularly awkward the photo from our 8th/9th grade visit to Disney World was in Mary's wonderful previous post. (He said, "That photo is the funniest thing I've ever seen.  I'm glad you got your eyebrows under control.")  That made me a.) laugh a lot and b.) look at that photo again... and he's right.  YOWZA.  That was not my finest moment. Ha!  I thought it would be nice to do a little compare and contrast to see what a significant difference a little over a decade can make... 

1998

2010 

Let us all thank the good Lord in heaven that we outgrew our painfully awkward stages...and that I did indeed learn to control my eyebrows.  ;-)  

Awkwardly yours,

  1. Two things:
    a) I'm almost positive this photo is from 1998, which would make you in 7th grade and me 8th. Those 'brows seem more acceptable for a 7th grader. However, the fanny packs...
    b) You failed to mention my preoccupation with eyebrows, and how I helped shape yours into perfection. For reference, please see Besties: Abridged, Cruise photo circa 2003.

  2. Actually, it's even possible that photo is from 1997... because it appears this photo occurred before I discovered highlights.
