A Challenge…

I was going through some VERY old pictures today when I came across this lovely one.

For the amusement of everyone who reads my blog, I present you with a three year old Epi.

OH DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN WHAT THE HELL AM I WEARING?????

THAT lovely ensemble, came courtesy of a dance class I took at the age of three.  My first year.  Apparently I had some baby fat on me still.

My Mom, or my Brother (depending on who had it in for me on that given day) would whip this picture out with wreckless abandon to show my dates when I was a teenager.

Gee, thanks ya’ll.

So my challenge to you is to tell us about how your parents (or siblings) used to embarrass you as a teenager.

I realize that my oldest is almost nine, and hasn’t quite gotten to the point where he’s easily embarrassed, but I’d like to share with you what I’ll be putting on display when his dates show up to the house.

Yes, he has a black eye.  He crawled, then toddled, then fell, into the entertainment center.  Poor little guy.

That’ll surely get him some sympathy when his date gets a look at the lovely hat I had him in.

Come ON.  It’s CUTE dammit.  I don’t care what’cha say.  That hat is CUTE.

Okay, your turn.  Share your stories.  Please?

    Picture one – me wearing my mother’s bra when I was about 4 or so. No, I am not a cross dresser and I am very heterosexual, thank you very much.

    Picture two – a wonderful potty training photo with me sitting on the can, pants down to my ankles.

    First of all, thanks for being the first brave enough to comment.

    Both cause me to form lovely mental images :) Hehehehe

    Epi,
    Somewhere hidden still is a picture of me covered from head to toe in Desitin (sp?), a white cream similar to Boudreaux’s Butt Paste or something like it. Why? Because I had just watched “Casper,” and wanted to be just like him.

    Epi,
    1st of all, be glad you have this little gem. bad as they are (not saying that is bad mind you) photos like this are such amazing mementos of our childhood. Sadly, I don’t have many. #6 of 7 kids, not many photos

    and secondly,
    you should send this in to the Ellen show for worst photo ever

    anyways, I loved it, its completely priceless.
