Flashback Friday

I was slowly making my way out the door for work this morning when I had an
"oh fuck" moment. 
I had forgotten to find a picture for Flashback Friday!!
This weeks was school photos, and I had intended to dig for one last night, but then hubby and I decided to have some drinks and get a little frisky(bow chick wow wow) and I forgot.
So I left my child unattended with his father, and ran downstairs to see 
what I could dig up in literally 5 seconds. 
This is what I emerged with.
Don't lie. You think I'm sexy.
I know its not a school photo, but its the best I could do in a rush. I think this was fourth or fifth grade. There are so many wonderful things about this photo, such as:
My soccer ball headband. I was so cool.
My frizz-tastic hair that refuses to be confined by said headband.
My awesome glasses, that literally take up half my face. Sally Jesse Raphael aint got nothin on me!
My freakishly large hands. 
My classic Umbro shorts.
The beautiful fall foliage in the background.

Seriously, tiny me ROCKS.

Anywho, I got to work and immediately started blogging working REALLY hard, when I realized I had these beauties in my wallet.
Yes, I'm almost 26 and still have my high-school ID's in my wallet. 

Junior year. Puka shell necklaces. Blonde streaks in my hair. Tanning bed overload. Those were the days...
Senior year. Where the fuck are my eyebrows??? Is that shimmer eyeshadow?? I want to slap my former self across the face. Terrible. Just terrible.

Hope everyone has a great Friday!! Its another Friday Follow, so join in!!

xoxo

(Oops! You linked the wrong post on the mr linky!! You accidentally linked us to last weeks post)

You played soccer, and thats rad. I always always wanted to be in shape, and play sports. But, instead, I ate bricks of velveeta and sat on the couch watching soap operas at the age of 6, hahaha. Sad really, that was a total nervous laugh, hah.

I think its kind of cute that you still carry around your high school id's. Mine are scattered throughout the house, I gave them to my daughter to play with as "credit cards". I flashback'd using one a couple of months ago though.

Um, and HECK YES thats shimmer eyeshadow!
