I kind of look like I could be related to Jon B. in this picture.
Yeah. He's my hero.

That picture of your sister looks *just* like Matilda.

Pretty similar, huh? That's really my paternal grandmother's features coming through. Sadly, my sister had to suffer a perm for those curls, whereas Matilda's come from JZ.

Your sister got a perm as a little girl?
Nobody has perms any more, do they? Or are they going to come back, like acid wash skinny jeans?

Your Dad kind of looks like (a blond) Tony Head to me, David.

Oh, dear, I have a pissed off customer, and all I can think to do is to be uber-polite until he has a stroke.

I packed one small box (stuff on the narrow cd shelf) and 3/4 one of the large moving boxes I got from work.
I think this is all I can cope with tonight.
Matilda is so adorable.

Indeed. It was pretty common in the fifties.

The trend is definitely moving away from straight hair, and thanks to Amy Winehouse (and Lagerfield following in her wake) big hair is making a resurgence. Judging from the cutting edge of hipster girls in SF, big hair might be coming back but perms have not.

The blond is really throwing me, I think. My dad's hair is naturally brown but it's very sunbleached there and tousled (which it never is in pictures of him from that time).

My dad with my sister when she was a newborn. He's reminding me of somebody but I can't place it. Some sort of actor type.
Spencer Tracy, but not built as block-ish.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I just cancelled an interview for a job I don't want and ordered a big spa gift certificate. I am feeling calmer already!
