Throwback Thursday: Winter, 1999

No date on the back of this photo, but I bought this sweatshirt while I was working at the Disney store. I started there in fall of 1998. The cut and color of my hair makes me think this was post wedding #1. Plus, that looks like a Christmas popcorn “gift” tin that Mom would receive from her students.

This is my 'fake happy for photo' pose.

Items of note:

  • I still have that Disney sweatshirt.
  • Mom’s wall is faux-finished, as one did in the 90s.
  • Remember when you wanted your eyeglasses to be as small and unobtrusive as possible?

    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! :)

    A plucky heroine and academically minded hero? A road trip to Key West? Optimism v pessimism?? Adults being adults and using their words to keep disagreements from lasting more than a few hours? Sign me up forever.

    Well, that happened.
