stuffstuff

Flickr is acting up so I am going to try out this new 'picture in blogger' thing. Bear with me...this is my first week using it. This week was harder than I thought it would be. How hard could it be? I am living with a man that is stuck in the 80's. It was hard. I couldn't decide what I kept from the 80's. I couldn't find my Dukes of Hazard matchbox car set I have. No seriously...I have one. Here is my diary from 1986. Internet, meet Matt Chestnut. This my first boyfriend. He was like 5 foot tall and The Fonz used every opportunity to tell me how dorky we looked together. I was like 5'7 in 7th grade. I was certain that this boy was going to be the father of my children. We were going to raise our 3 children to be perfect little Raider fans and live in Shingletown forever. He was going to be the PE coach and I was going to write stories for teenage girls. Oh gag me with a spoon!
Here's just ONE page from this diary that reads much like a conversation with my 12 year old. I couldn't post the other pages because...dear God I was so stupid then! I will post for you my 'Shit List'. If by chance you went to 6-9th grade with me and you're name is on this list...no worries, i'm PRETTY SURE I'm over whatever it was that caused you to get put on this list.
Next up is a movie from the 80's. My favorite was Real Genius with Val Kilmer, but I don't own that movie. I use to until the Fonz couldn't take it anymore and probably buried it somewhere in the middle of the forest and rejoiced that she would never have to hear that movie played at 7am when I was getting ready for school. I picked a movie that I still have. (Shaun is making me get rid of all my VHS movies) This movie I can watch over and over and over and never get sick of it. The Fonz will laugh until she pees over the part, "Back in the Bowl!"
I did buy HEATHERS because IMHO is one of the best movies. "Oh Fuck me running Heather! What is your damage?!" Pictures of me from the 80's. You're not drinking anything are you? Put it down, this is painful.
Okay did you play?? Leave me a comment! Did you get anyone else to play? GET EM OVER HERE so we can all check out their stuff!

First, woo hoo! I played, and must admit that SPF is one of my favorite weekday themes. Good photos Kristine, I'm loving the hair!

Blogger Wethyb commented at 7/15/2005 04:13:00 AM~  

I did get to play this week!! I love the topic this week too!!! Great hair :)

Blogger Cindy commented at 7/15/2005 04:34:00 AM~  

Those are some adorably cute pictures Kristine! I love the 'shit list' and reminds me of the back of my diary and my 'crush list'. I need to find my diary! :-)

I played - and can't wait to visit the rest of the groups sites!

Blogger KGrams commented at 7/15/2005 04:42:00 AM~  

Have to run to work, so I will comment on your pics later. Just wanted to let you know that I played.

Blogger MMC commented at 7/15/2005 04:45:00 AM~  

Yea! Now we can all cringe together. This sort of excercise makes me wish I were more of a sentimental sap, but alas, am not.I love SPF, I actually set my alarm early to get to do it. Come see!

Blogger Liza commented at 7/15/2005 04:55:00 AM~  

"Fuck me gently with a chainsaw" holy crap I haven't thought about Heathers in a long time! Great movie!! Great stuff too, the shit list is fantastic. I had about eight pages of people I hated and considering my grade only had 65 people in it, it was damn near everyone. Anyways, I'll be playing, I just have to get to work and post it up!

Blogger Renee commented at 7/15/2005 05:02:00 AM~  

This was a hard one for me but i played!:-)

Blogger Liza commented at 7/15/2005 05:57:00 AM~  

I have played now :)

Blogger ieatcrayonz commented at 7/15/2005 06:03:00 AM~  

I first read your true love as Mark Chestnutt. I had no idea you dated a country star that's well, notsomuch a star now. He's still 5 foot tall.

I loved Real Genius as well. It was on TV this past weekend and I had to watch it. Heathers was my pick for the week as well. Loved, loved, loved that movie.

I played! I cheated, but I played. Forgive me for my SPF sins.

Blogger Mainline Mom commented at 7/15/2005 06:07:00 AM~  

I played! And I love Heathers too!

Blogger Vajana commented at 7/15/2005 06:11:00 AM~  

Kristine--I would never want to be on your shit list. LOL That is hilarious.

And man woman even in the 80s you had great hair!!

It might take me a while to get my SPD up as I have no scanner for the 80s pics, but I'll let you know when I get that 80s vibe kicking!! Until then I'm gonna go visit everyone else!!!

Blogger Pissy Britches commented at 7/15/2005 06:13:00 AM~  

Girl you are fucking tall or something. In that prom picture you look crazy ass tall!
Your hair was big but mine was bigger. I will have to bring those pic's along on my journey to Cali.

Blogger J Bo commented at 7/15/2005 06:16:00 AM~  

Morning! I will have my photos up later tonight! Promise.

Blogger SoozieQ commented at 7/15/2005 06:28:00 AM~  

Love/LOVED that movie("All of Me")! I can actually SEE the dude doing the stupid hand motions as he said "back in bowl....back in bowl" ~ thanks for the early morning smile!

I agree with Pissy, you must be pretty tall if you were 5 ' 7 " in the 7th grade (unless you stopped growing then?!?) Shit, I didn't stop growing until I was 16 years old (but that is when I reached 5 ' 7 " and you were already there in the 7th grade!?!)

Nice hair though, seriously...for the 80's you had NICE hair!!

Ok, I played.

Happy SPF everyone!!!

Blogger Susie commented at 7/15/2005 06:33:00 AM~  

You were adorable. I half-ass played. I mean one-third-ass played.

Blogger Peanutt commented at 7/15/2005 06:38:00 AM~  

Ok, I played!

Blogger Tammy commented at 7/15/2005 07:05:00 AM~  

I played, sort of.

Blogger Torrie commented at 7/15/2005 07:09:00 AM~  

I'm glad I'm not on your shit list.

Blogger Valerie commented at 7/15/2005 07:17:00 AM~

Damn, I wish I still had my diaries from when I was in jr. high and high school. What a laugh!

Also, that prom picture would have bee great for Way Back Wednesday this week (pinktangerine2.blogspot.com)!!

Blogger Easily Amused commented at 7/15/2005 07:59:00 AM~  

Well, once again, against my better judgment, I played!

Love your pics. What was with the red hair or, is it not red, but just looks that way????

Can’t wait till next weeks theme…..God, I must be sick!! LOL

Heathers!

Blogger Rozanne commented at 7/15/2005 09:04:00 AM~  

I played for the first time this week. Tons of fun.

I notice that despite the fact that the delightfully named Matt Chestnut was the love of your life, he also made the shit list at one point. Too funny.

Blogger Dy commented at 7/15/2005 09:12:00 AM~  

I played! dyannalarson.blogspot.com

Blogger Torrie commented at 7/15/2005 09:20:00 AM~

Blogger Toady Joe commented at 7/15/2005 10:08:00 AM~  

Heeheehee, I'm glad I didn't go to school with you and have to find out *on the internet* that you hated me! Equally glad I never wrote anything incriminating like that down (too paranoid), lol. I was all jealous of your cool pics until I saw that last one with the totally 80's outfit, and then I felt better about what I posted on mine. Whew.

Anyway, I played.

Blogger that girl commented at 7/15/2005 10:22:00 AM~  

you so need haloscan so it's easier to get to people's blogs!

i'm just whining.

Blogger dnyduck commented at 7/15/2005 10:57:00 AM~  

I wanted to play, but in order to I would have taken my happy little arse over to my mother's house to find the '80s stuff to take pictures of. If I did that then she would have made me take it all home along with everything else I left there. I'm not ready to bring all of that home yet. My husband might kill me!

I loved the prom picture! I swear that was my Senior Prom dress also! but I can't tell if you had a jacket on with it or if yours isn't sleeveless like mine was. lol

~Stephanie

Blogger SierraBella commented at 7/15/2005 11:06:00 AM~  

I played!
Love the shit list! Obviously you weren't vindictive, seeing you had names scratched out... or did you kill them?

Anonymous MrsDoF commented at 7/15/2005 11:11:00 AM~  

Okay, I played SPF. Golly, I am OLD!!
Now I gotta go round and see what everybody else did.

Blogger Vajana commented at 7/15/2005 11:21:00 AM~  

Okay CRAP I finally played, and I must say although the Theme was AWESOME totally, I sucked at it. Partly due to my not having a scanner. I will do better next week i swear!

And the 80s is my favorite decade too, man. I suck.

Blogger Sandy commented at 7/15/2005 11:26:00 AM~  

I played, big hair and everythign!

Blogger Oliver commented at 7/15/2005 11:50:00 AM~

Blogger Ern commented at 7/15/2005 01:26:00 PM~  

I didn't play, but I sure enjoyed yours! And Real Genius is one of my favorite movies of all time. Awesome.

Blogger Tee commented at 7/15/2005 01:58:00 PM~  

I didn't play either because I've been insanely busy. Had to go to the doctor at the last minute this morning when I realized son's sore throat wasn't going away. (Strep. Mommy was right!)

Anyhow, I LOVE Heathers. :) Love this show and tell game too. :)

Blogger Amy commented at 7/15/2005 02:20:00 PM~  

Kristine, I am one third done. I am determined to comment on every single person's blog who played this week.

I just want to thank you for taking off with the whole SPD thing. IT is totally fun!

Blogger Sue commented at 7/15/2005 03:03:00 PM~

This is funny.... how did I not make the list??? You have EVERYBODY on there. It was cute how you put,,,"Lisa from math".. too cute.

Hey Cindy,,, yeah you with the 2 little grey kitties. They are so cute. I used to have 2 grey kitties too, "Cilla and Elvis". Cilla was the best kitty ever. Elvis was the stupidest cat ever.

Blogger Random and Odd commented at 7/15/2005 05:37:00 PM~  

I managed to make it all the way through all your websites!
You guys are so 80'a-lious!!

Renee, you changed your picture on your profile! You still beat me to everyone's site! lol.

I saw someone is doing 'self portrait friday' Did you know that there is 'self portrait Thursdays' over on selfportraitday.com? also hdl (home detention lady) has the weekly theme listed on her site so everyone can play along. It's just like SPF, but 'self'....and I'm not good at 'self' because I'm a goober and don't like pictures of myself unless it has had hours and hours of 'photo editing'.

I saw gizmo, pegged pants, camaro bangs, michael jackson (pre freak) and the Cure albums.

I was surprised to find GARBAGE PAIL KIDS and Swatch Watches.
I was surprised I didn't see more Molly Ringwald movies.

The thing I was looking for: A crimping Iron!! I FOUND ONE! if you want to find it, you have to go through all these links too! ha ha ha.

Oh and Sue and Charlotte...how cool are you guys? BEASTIE BOYS !!

I flippin' love you guys! all of you!

Blogger dashababy commented at 7/15/2005 06:13:00 PM~  

Ok, I finished. I had to come home from work and upload some pix of me in the 80s. Kris, youre gonna love this.
and YAY, the back button worked for the first time ever here. I almost fell of my chair. Its a miracle!!

Blogger Cindy commented at 7/15/2005 06:15:00 PM~  

I'm working my way through the list too - such fun and laughs and memories from all this. Thank you again to you Kristine for being the unofficial - or official - host of SPF. I think it's safe to say that it's a total hit!

dashababy - thank you for telling me about your gray kitties. I'm sorry that you had a silly cat. :-) My kitties are adorable and smart and the best ever! But, I may be partial to them - just a tad. I'm working on uploading some pics of them for next week. They're definitely growing up quickly!

Blogger dashababy commented at 7/15/2005 06:17:00 PM~  

Hi Cindy,,, I uploaded a pic of them on my flickr for you so you can see the resemblance.

Blogger Kate commented at 7/15/2005 07:03:00 PM~  

Well, I am not big on the 80's but I played for the most part.

Blogger J Bo commented at 7/15/2005 07:08:00 PM~  

Phew! I did it! My pics are up! And my husband is now nagging to get off the computer and pack for our trip where I will have no internet access for 4 days!

Blogger Sue commented at 7/15/2005 07:35:00 PM~

I played this week, Kristine. I got my post up just under the midnight deadline, but forgot to leave you a comment until just now.

Thanks for the suggestion. The girls and I had a lot of fun going through my old stuff. (Read more about it in my post.)

HUGS!
