Girls Write Out
Monday, August 08, 2011

Saturday night found us at a Foreigner/Journey concert in Indianapolis. We were just taking our seats in the outdoor venue when I scanned the thousands of aging fans in the crowd.

I nudge Kevin. "There sure are a lot of middle age people here."

Hey, wait a minute . . .

Kevin claimed all those other fans were much older than him, so I felt a smidge better. After all, he's four years older than me. If he's not that old, I sure can't be.

The bands were great, and though I did leave my big hair at home, the music took me right back to the good ol' 80s. Still, there's nothing like a concert from back when to make you feel your age--unless it's a photo . . .

Here I am in 1984 (10th grade), looking like an 80's advertisement with big hair, puffy sleeves, argyle vest, and a tie.

What were you doing in the 80s? And please don't tell me you weren't born yet.

I'm a teenager again! Okay, not really. It's not like the gray hairs and sagging eyebrows have disappeared, but have you looked around lately? If you're a child of the 80's, rejoice!

Argyle sweaters, leggings, vests, leg warmers, belted sweaters, boots . . . it's a virtual fashion replay.
This is my sophomore photo (me, before the eyebrows slid south). Note the argyle vest. Oh, yeah. It's a look I still like and I'm glad it's back. I hope the saggy pants and skin tight sweaters go the away and never come back.

There was just something about the 80's. Okay, I can do without the frosted and pinstriped denim, but even the music was good in the 80's, and my kids agree.

Now, if only the big hair would come back. I am so there.
