In my defense, I'm only slightly procrastinating (just a little) by digging up old pictures, laughing at them, taking pictures of them, uploading them to iphoto, enhancing them and posting them here for your enjoyment.

That's me in 1995 at the Choctawhatchee High School Band Banquet . . .

Did you get a load of them brows? Also? I just want to make it clear that, that is not my purse. Not even back then would I have made such a grave mistake . . . well, I dunno. Maybe I woulda. But I really wasn't the purse-toting type. I mean. What would I have carried in my purse if I did?

Certainly not any make-up.

Or tweezers.

That's me in 1996.  What a difference a year makes . . .

Did you get a load of them brows? That's what happens when you let a drag queen named Rachel (pronounced: Rah-Shell) Richards talk you into going to her brow shaper, waxer man . . . followed by a lot of over-plucking.
