(retro)photo Friday #5: Special Birthday Edition

by

Yeah, I know it’s Wednesday. But it’s also my birthday so I can break the rules of my own blog if I want to. So this is the very first photo of me ever taken. I got it about a half hour ago from my parents who drove across Jersey to take me out to lunch for my birthday. They came bearing four garbage bags bursting with hundreds of loose pictures and dozens of photo albums spanning a century of family history. They want me and my brothers to scan and label these photos for posterity. This is a momentous task because every other photo inspires peals of appalled laughter and conversation that goes like this:
Me: OH MY GOD.
Dad: That’s some hair right there.
Me: And the outfit? Why? Seriously. WHY?
Mom: But that was the style…
Me: Egad.
ETC.
Obviously, this photo is free from such scrutiny.
