Most of my clothes in the eighties were hand-me-downs from my sister. So just about everything I wore was three years out of date super-trendy. One outfit I remember loving in third grade was neon green and white striped leggings and a t-shirt with a neon pink, orange, and green picture of a bicyclist, with "Tour de France" written in glitter. Worn with a neon pink hair bow, one pair each white and green socks (one foot had white then green, other foot had green then white), scrunched down, with purple high-top sneakers.
Just describing that is making me shudder.
And I just remembered hypercolor. I think I had two hypercolor shirts. One pink/purple and one orange/yellow.

Were those the shirts that changed color when body heat was applied?
Skippydoodle all day...and then I'll go back and catch up.
Do. Not. Tempt. Me. go ahead, say "double dog dare 'ya
I'll bake you a cake with a file in it ...
JSw, make it lemon coconut or chocolate mousse and we gotta deal.
Random tangent:
I'm watching one of the worst movies ever made...that I happen to be in...at a distance anyway. (in 1984)
Good lawd. How did we ever survive the 80s?
I hate to admit it, but I'm an extra in Dreamscape. Did I mention worstEVER? yes, I am wearing a maroon skirt and vest set with navy blue knee socksforgive me!
Still, Eddie Albert was really nice. And one of the principal extras, Gene Scott, was the coolest guy. He'd been a POW in Korea and had harrowing stories to tell. He financed his 'extra habit' with a shmancy women's boutique in the Bonaventure hotel in LA. WOW. How can I remember that stuff so clearly 20 years later?
Nope, the movie isn't getting any better...
I think that a) I'm an idiot, and b) I need Lori. I left my cell phone charger in Belmont, so I went and bought a travel one this morning, and I can't figure out how the effing thing is supposed to work.
Plug it in where the sockets fit?
t /don't have a cellphone, is a mysterious device that lets you talk to AIR
That's just it. I know I am supposed to somehow fit together the charger and the phone's charging element. I just don't know how the hell that is supposed to happen.
t cranky
Also? A 17 lb cat stumbling around on the out tray of a printer sounds very similar to a 7 lb cat standing on the ON button.
Freaky.
Perkins, I am not mocking. I am wallowing with you in confusion.
I am a physics BS who was trained by a tinkerer and I swore madly when I bought a car cd player converter/adaptor and it came with all these weird plugs. WTF. I fix my own stereo and rewire parts of my apartment. But the Tech sometimes confounds me.
