140 characters really wasn't gonna do it for me
Put down the Aqua Net, your hair is freakin big enough...
Do not go with the bi level...
You're so gonna regret those 80's pics...
Your kids are gonna laugh at them...
AND people are gonna tag you in them on FB...
I know you don't know what FB is, but make no mistake, you will, and it's big...in this case the camera is not your friend...
How many shades of eyeshadow must you apply...esp the turquiose, it's not your best color...
The Chevette does get great gas mileage, but you will have to use your feet, Fred Flintstone style, to get up a hill...keep looking...
Your parents are slightly cooler than you think...
Your kids are gonna think you are an idiot too...
Oh, and that you are NOT cool...if they could have only seen...never mind...you won't tell them, Thank God...
Date the nerdy guy...he's gonna make all the money...
Yes, you WILL tell your daughter to date the nerdy guy, he's gonna make all the money...
Your stomach IS flat, wait till you have two children...holy *&^%$, you won't believe it!!!!
Two of the girls, who you think are your friends...coniving BITCHES!!
AND they only get worse...
AND they talk you into the banana clip...you'll see...
Ps. You're gonna have two great kids, a wonderful husband, and tons of awesome fam and friends...
You're gonna love it...
You could have written this to my 16 year old self, as well! I got a laugh....sort of...when I read these. Thanks!!

Sadly, the 80's were one of those time periods that...err...really stand out...I have about a bazillion more but, don't want to ummm...incriminate anyone (myself)...
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, I think the one thing I wish I could tell me sixteen year old self is this:
ReplyDeleteDON'T DATE HIM!
Ah, to be young and stupid...
OMG....I don't even want to think about my 16 year old self. She was a stupid little bitch when it came to a lot of things. If I had the chance, I'd probably knock the hell out of her.
ReplyDeleteGini, I actually tweeted that one myself, too!
ReplyDeleteMisfit Mommy, you are so funny, and I'm right there with you! I loved your blog, and can't wait to read more! Will be catching up on that this wkend...
