Throwback Thursday: September 1979

Kids these days with their measly Throwback Thursday pictures from 2 years ago. “BAH!” I say.

The date on the back of the photo says September 1979, so it was probably August. (Back in my day, film was sent away to be processed when the roll was finished. Rolls of film usually covered a few months. I was close to 7 years old and emulating Bowzer from Sha Na Na. John wasn’t born yet so I was still the center of the known universe.

Goodnight, Sweetheart.
Goodnight, Sweetheart.

Item of note: the crocheted hair ties that were everywhere in the 70s and early 80s.

    Adorable. But curse you: I’m going to have “do-do-do-do-do…good night sweetheart well it’s time to go…” stuck in my head all morning.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

the wombsday clock graphic with two teal haired women in white rockers. It has reached 12 months and there are teal and white stars all over the graphic.
Well, that happened.
