1985-Senior Prom. That's me and my boyfriend at the time, Jim, who was a year younger than me. I notice that his tie and cummerbund are tartan plaid--a bold choice for a high-school Junior. I don't remember being involved in that decision. My hair is scrunched up. I'm pretty darn sure that was Aussie Sprunch Spray in there. The dress was a great choice and pretty classic. Not many girls wore black dresses back then --as is evidenced by the other two chicks who are drowning in hideous gunne sax lace. I don't even know their names. They were the dates of the other boys who were actually my friends. A pattern of me being better friends with the guys than the girls that continues to this day. And you have to admit that fur stole certainly demonstrates some bold confidence! If I could just get those upper arms back.....
Next week there will be a Bob Tate prom photo.....brace yourselves for the power of POWDER BLUE.

The anticipation of Bob's prom photos is killing me! Ma y next week come NOW!
Fantastic!!! I love the 80's coiffe, and I was a fan of the Aussie too. It smelled like grape candy and could stick my hair up a mile high. I need to dig out my junior year homecoming photos, our hairstyles were very similar. And it was all about the black dress back in the 'Robert Smith' days too. Can't wait to see Bob's!
